    I don't know for sure, but I would check the microfiche from an online OEM parts supplier and see if the part numbers are the same

      The OEM numbers are not the same, but the 750 pipes will fit the head, you may have to make some kind of a bracket to hold the back of the pipe up. On the 1000 the ports are the same, but the bolt spacing is a hair wider.

        I have a similar question. I have an '80 550L and found an OEM exhaust system from an '81 550T. Not sure where to look to see if they will fit. Anyone know where I can find this information?

        Google is usually my friend, but I'm drawing blanks. Thanks!

          I would guess you would be ok, but to be sure, try comparing these two fiches:
