(could save me a bundle of $$$) May the force be with you - SoloWookie solowookie.com

Most guys suggest the earlier ('70-'81) Camaro/Firebird rearend as they claim the width is right on. I've got the second gen. rearend, but no truck yet, so I can't offer you first hand advice, Solo. I'm sure someone who's already done it will chime in here before too long. Regards, Wannabe "Don't expect anything and you'll never be disappointed"
