Decoding a 1969 Chassis Broadcast Copy

[OG69Z]

Hello,
  After a considerable amount of site searching, it seems I have failed to find some decoding information on a 1969 L.A. Chassis Broadcast Copy. In particular, i am looking for information on item box 198 "Exhaust System" which is printed "FM".
    In addition, I'm looking for item boxes 254 and 256 "Bat Cable" which are printed MF for the positive and BF for the negative.
If these are decoded somewhere, please steer me in the right direction, if not I hope someone may know the answers for these code letters.
Thank you

Box 198 (FM) is Z28 and Pacecar. It's possible it has other applications as well.
Box 254 (MF) is Z28, and again, other possibilities as well.
Box 256 (BF) is standard V8 and Z28 with other possibilities again.

Thank you Ed.
I was hoping to determine if the FM specified if the chambered or std dual exhaust was on the Z/28.
In regards to the battery cables, any idea if these were top or side posts?
Thanks again for your quick reply.

No, the Broadcast copy wouldn't stipulate what kind of exhaust or if the battery cables were top or side post. It would depend on when the car was assembled.

Thanks Marty,
   Yes, I'm familiar with the late 69 intro of the side posts, thank you for the link.  Where I'm going with this is I'm trying to figure the possibility of side posts on my 03B  23,000 mile 69Z, maybe as an option? The original owner swears the car came with a side post battery.  The car was a dealer leftover and wasn't sold till June of 1970. Maybe the dealer had to replace the original battery before delivery, I don't know. I was sure the cable codes on the Chassis  Broadcast  would give me the answer, but apparently not.
   I appreciate any leads on my quest!
Thanks again

FM is the std SB dual exhaust, not chambered.
MF and BF are for a SB with Y55 top posts.

Can I get a scan of your broadcast copy? Thanks!
