Default Will 99 stock exhaust fit a 97?

Can anyone confirm that a stock exhaust off a 99 will bolt up to a 97 with no problems? I may be trading exhaust in order to go back to stock but Im not sure if the 99 will fit. They have different part numbers between the years. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

From what im reading, the intermediate pipe to mufflers are the same from years 95-00. However, the front pipe is a different part number between 96-97 and 98-00. Im not sure if it fits differently or not. I wonder if it has anything to do with the cat converters.

I think I might just change the muffers. If your interested in the Blitz mufflers, let me know and I will contact you when theyre available.
