My wife and I are working on building up her camaro... This will be a strictly street car. The plans for the car include a 383 stroker with the 700r4 trans(rebuilt)... We want to put a posi rear in it but need some advice... I am not wanting to spend 2000-2500 for just the rear end. A local guy told me that there were some of the s-10s and blazers that had the correct length rears with the correct mounting hardware. They would have been 4cyl trucks with gear ratios around 3.73. Does this sound right? I would go through it and clean it up, replace the seals and such... Are there any other stock rears that will be a direct bolt in? The car will have the stock 305tbi in it until we get the motor in(prolly this winter)... Is there anything else that I would need to do right away to make the new rear work?

How about rear disk conversion for this car? anything off a factory car that will work? What would I need to do the install?

thanks

Yes the new camaro rears will bolt right in. The small truck rears are the same but i don't think they have coil springs or torque arm, so don't do that. You could grab the gears and posi form one though.

 

chack this out, ill be doing many of these upgrade when i change my gears and add my posi unit...

look here for rear upgrades
