I think an 18" long, 2.5" inlet to a 3.5" outlet with a slant cut would look sweet on that. Something to extent the length of the rear quarter behind the rear tires. Either a rolled or non-rolled edge. I got my Dad a pair of Summit tips of that size for his 72 a few years ago and they looked great.

MagnaFlow makes a tip the exact configuration as that Summit tip, but it's a bit more expensive. MagnaFlow also makes a tip with the same inlet diameter but with a 3" outlet if you're not looking for something too big, or a 4" outlet if you are looking for something larger.

I'd also say if you want something a bit longer with more of an aggressive slant cut, non-rolled edge, MagnaFlow makes this one:

Definately nice tips... I run Vibrant 3 1/2" rolled slant cut tips... If I had it to do again I would go with the Magnaflow 4" tips sticking out from the bumper the same amount... Good luck and post pics...
