The hookups are clearly labeled on the Chevy's canisters, I think it would be a better choice, since you will not likely have the ability to actuate the stock purge valve once you toss the 2F and it's related circuits.
That being the case then the GM canister would clearly be the preferred choice unless OBD II in which case the ECU can drive the canister purge valve (though the impedances may be different so caution would be advised).
