Both are used in other years.
"Plan" one is on just about everything non GT but Dukes mostly only have left side tip.
87-88 often has 1 or both tips as part of the muffler to save time to make the car at factory. Giant pain when someone backup hitting the tip and crush the pipe over the frame/cradle.
Note: Both above have "Neck down" pipe joints and may not fit third party mufflers w/o help. May need a "shim" pipe between the sizes to fit. The Shim may be cut long ways so clamp on outer pipe can grab inner pipe w/o too much force.
Yes could weld a tip but have even bigger problems to fix where tips are hit.
