Where is the best place to buy a rear end?

First of all, I want to tell you guys I am not posting here just to beg for a rear end, thats not what im trying to do., so please do not ban this post, I am just getting VERY frustrated, I have been looking for a POSI 3.23 , 3.27 , 3.42 or 3.73 POSI rear for the past YEAR AND A HALF, and still cannot find one. I have checked the EBAY, looked through misc car web pages, went to my local wrecking yards, and still no luck. Where is the best place to buy used camaro car parts like that? is there that awesome classifieds web page out there somewhere that has a whole bunch of camaro parts? The reason im getting so anxious, is because my SSM traction kit finally got here, and I dont want to put it on until I put in a new rear axle. So please understand im not trying to solicit you guys, I just need to know the best places to find used parts, because I am always in the market for camaro parts... THANKS GUYS!!! Let me know what you think.

Nate

P.s. what gear ratio would you guys suggest I go with anyways? Gas mileage is not an issue. I just want great acceleration off the line. right now I have a stock rear end, and if i start to creep, and then lay on the gas, the tire just starts smoking, and the car looses all its speed. As you can see, I have the TH350, so what rear do you recommend, and why? thansk guys

If you really need one and don't mind paying shipping from FL, go to www.tacreationsusa.com. They should have what you need.

If you're not in a hurry, you could find a 10 bolt rear and build up what you want.

There's 2 "complete" rears on ebay right now, one 3.27 9 bolt and one '96 2.73 posi.

As far as ratio, if you want acceleration go for 4.10s or lower.

I can answer that for you, Nate. When you open up to the main page, click on message Boards. When that page opens, go almost all the way to the bottom and click on the Temporary Classifieds Board.
