Default 69 side pipe headers

I'm told that Hedman headers part# HED-68280-6 will fit the stock side pipes without any modifications. Does anyone have comments on these headers?

The hedman headers I have were designed to connect to the stock '69 side pipe mufflers. I don't remember the part number.

Without modification is a bit misleading. You need to cut the muffler pipe and weld on the collector adaptor.

It makes a nice setup if you want headers and use the stock sidepipe muffler.

I've been using this combination for 30 years. On my third set of headers.
