I have an Ansa exhaust with dual tips on my 73... it sits low enough below
the rear lower apron to not cause a problem (it's got a bracket across the
top which puts the tips about an inch below whatever you attach the
bracket to).

Seven Enterprisies recommends the Ansa as a somewhat stronger (thicker
metal, thicker paint) version of the Monza.  My only problem is that I
think I've broken loose a baffle in the muffler itself, as I get a rather
odd chirp from the tailpipe.  Other than that it seems to have held up
quite well over the last two years, anyway.
