hi, i have an option on a used chevy 10 bolt rearend.
it came from an el camino 1974, with discbrakes

he says its 154 centimeters long,

can i use it on my 1982 camaro?

i know i have to do some welding because of the shocks and stuff

but is it something that can work? ( it has a 4.10 thats why i want it)

thx

The '82 Camaro has a torque arm on the rear end which will not work on the El Camino rear end. You will have to use some kind of after market rear suspension to make it work.
