Intranuclear cascade studies have been made of low-energy pion-induced nuclear reactions which include the production and subsequent interactions of (3,3) isobars. The results are in fair to excellent agreement with the sparse amount of experimental information now available. Several experiments are outlined which could test the validity of some of the assumptions which were made in these calculations.
