The OEM mufflers fit the best and will give the longest service. On
your 69 you can use either the early (66-71) small pipe version or
the late (72-3) one; both work well. In either case you will need to
have a pair of the small rear heat exchangers which these screw
into. If you now have an aftermarket exhaust, those rear heat
exchangers have probably been lost, unless you have them in your
basement.
The OE mufflers work better, fit better, seal better, last longer, are
quieter, and give more heat. On the other hand they are a real pain
to install.
