My Camaro, Rear disk?

Hey juys I have a 1982 Camaro Berlinetta LG4. I'm looking to upgrade my breaks with rear disk. Are there any third gen Camaro that came stock with them. I was thinking that if there is would it be a good idea to go to a jy, find one and takes the brakes.

do a search, theres plenty of info, you can do it look for 89 and up brakes as the calipers are better, you have to modify the axle housing to mount the backing plate, theres a tech article on this, i'm in the process of putting 98+ brakes on my drum rear.

If you want a direct bolt in, get one from a third gen. IROCs all came with 4 wheel disk brakes (im pretty sure) and GTAs did.
