Anyone have experience with CJ's dual exhaust kits?

That time has finally arrived where it's time to pick an exhaust system for the 428. I'm looking at CJ's catalog and see they offer two different dual exhaust kits. One says it fits all 64-73 in 2 1/4" and the other is specific for the 70 mach 1 in 2 1/4" without staggered rear shocks. The difference in price is about $50 but I can't for the life of me figure out why/how they are different?

Also, has anyone ever purchased and installed either of these kits? What is the fitment like? Any issues?

Tailpipes are different to clear the staggered shocks, IIRC. Been a while since I looked into putting staggered shocks on my car though.

Oh no, I realize the difference if I have a staggered shock setup. I do not though. I'm looking for the difference between the standard 64-73 kit and the specific 70 mach 1 setup. Both kits are going to be non-staggered rear shocks, so why the $50 difference in price?

My real concern is fitment of either kit. Was hoping someone here had used them.

Not sure if you're going stock or not, but I was leafing through Branda's catalog and they have some decent prices on both stock type exhaust and flowmaster.

Doesn't really matter to me. Looking for something that fits good and sounds good (but I'm not interested in Flowmasters after hearing them on my buddys 67).

CJ's offers free shipping on their exhaust which was why I was curious about their kits.

Finally got some time to get a hold of someone at CJ's. They basically told me nothing other than the Mach 1 kit is specifically designed for the Mach 1, while the other one is more of a universal fit.
