They're not equivalent, though they share the same pinout and function with
the old National Semiconductor 8097. The 8T97 has greater current
source/sink capability, hence it is faster in some applications and can
drive a pretty stubstantial load. It was very common as a bus driver, which
was it's intended purpose. For normal TTL fanout, either part will work.

Subject: 8T97 == 74367 ??
Are these two parts equivalent:
74367AN and N8T97N
Thanks,
