I thought the original 6 mufflers were actually tucked up a little closer to the body? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
I know the 911 mufflers fit, but I thought they were slightly different. |

correct the tail pipe angle is different, and you can make one work by heating and bending the pipe or removing the rear valance!!!

Or by switching to the 72+ 914 rear valence; evidently the "notch" in that is in the correct place for the 911 muffler's tailpipe!
