The guy already said he's going to pop the cover off anyways, why tell him not to now? He might as well replace the fluid. Its part of regular maintenence, and should be done when acquiring any used car.

UMM.. OK
i was looking at my dif cover and it has 10 bolts is that stock for a 84 camaro that came with a stock 305? and i found a thing on this site that tells me what rpms i should be at in different gears with different gears in the rear like an example: 3.73 in second doing 35 my rpms should be at 2979 then with 2.73 doing 35 in second my rpms should be at 2180. should i believe this or is it inaccurate information?
this is with my gear ratio for my trans in second being at 1.63 and in 1st 3.06 3rd 1.00 and 4th or od .70

OMG LMAO THAT'S THE FUNNIEST THING I'VE HEARD IN A WHILE. LOL!
On top of that, I've never in my life seen more procrastination.

Alright smartass, I have 4.10 gears in my Camaro which means that the tire rotates 4.1 times for every revolution of the driveline.
Don't you mean 4.1 revolutions of the driveline to 1 rotation of the tyre?

Still haven't pulled the cover to count the teeth on the gears. Doesn't matter though, whenever it blows it's 12-bolt time.
If you need any help with your car, let me know. I'm right over in HG and know 3rd gens pretty well.
