If you are looking for a OEM style replacement system that won't kill your pocket, check out Waldron's. Due to the backlog I've been waiting about a month an a half for my 68 Chargers system and it just showed up today. Just over $500 shipped to my door, including full length pipes, so only 4 clamps needed to hold the whole system together, minus hangers.
I'm not a date coding correct-bended paint marking person so if you are this may not be for you...but if not maybe it is. So far the system looks beautiful, and some quick angling under the car looks like it is going to fit nicely. If anyone is curious I can post a followup later as to overall fit and finish.

Even then shouldn't it have the squashed corners on the muflers ?

that maybe the case but the corners were squashed for clearance , it'll be interesting to see if it they hit something they are not supposed to hit.

Sorry guys I've been busy and didn't notice the replies - I opted for the base system which is regular steel, not stainless, 2 1/4 inch pipes with turn downs; I will cut the turn downs off later after I purchase the proper tips. I bought hangers separate. Since the car had air shocks I had to order new ones that were closer to factory size as I believe the oversize air shocks would impede the tailpipe fit. I'm hoping to have it bolted on this weekend so I will update when I do - the mufflers I went with are the standard they use as well - if you check you tube you can hear sound clips of what the different options sound like. This system was $510 shipped to the door, that included the oversize charge so that they pipes didn't need to be cut. Thus far I'm really really happy with it, we'll see how it bolts up to the car.

I've been curios about Waldron's exhaust systems and mufflers. They seem to be one of the only places I've found that offers a dual system for my 340 Duster in stainless steel.
I'm anxious to hear about fit and your overall impressions.
you can't beat their prices! nice, thorough people to deal with to. Only downside is they are so busy there is a waiting time, the owner and some help hand bend everything to spec.

Got the system all mocked up in place tonight - the fit and finish is stunning...I doubt you can find a system that fits this good for so little money. No clearance issues and no need for crushed mufflers. I am blown away by how well it fits. Pics at the link as Moparts is still behind the times on photo sharing. Pics were from my beat up iPhone so not perfect, but you get the idea of how well it fits. Exhaust pics
