Not on Z's. Never seen a 69 Z with one (though they may be out there). Only on first gen Z's with 4.56 and 4.88 axle.

Most I've seen were in BB cars and most were 14" tires. It depended on which trans version they received - there were different speedo drive gears (shown in that chart).
I've seen 2 different adaptors used in 69 - auto vs manual - but there probably were others for the special order 4.56 and 4.88 axles.
