Default Recording with Amp Emulator

I have a POD XT which had a left and right output. I've been connecting them to their own line in channel and recording them onto a single stereo track.
Sometimes I'll duplicate the recorded track or record a second track that's similar to the first. In either instance I've been panning the left and right sides of one stereo track to the left and the left and right sides of the other stereo track to the right.
Does this make sense, or would converting the two stereo guitar tracks to mono and then panning them accordingly work out better? Or is it ultimately the same thing? I'm just thinking in terms of if this was done thru a guitar amp.. the signal would be mono.
I plan on giving this a try tonight. I'm curious what you guys think and how you go about recording with an amp emulator.

Thanks,
-Adam
