96 3.8 v6 with 70s Nova rear end????
I just bought a 96 Camaro from this guy that told me that he had gotten T-boned by a truck in the Camaro. The wreck messed up the rear axle. He said he got the body fixed, and went to a junkyard and got the rear axle off of a 70s Nova. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? he was talking about how it made it faster because the gears in the old Nova diff. were tighter than the ones in the axle the camaro came with stock. is he BS'ing me, or is this type of rear axle really better than the stock camaro one?

Well a different geared rear end could either make the car accelerate faster, or give it more top end. I think it would be a big pain to put a 70s nova rearend into a 4th gen though because it would have different mounting brackets and a torque arm. I doubt he would have gone through all this trouble but I guess its possible.
By the way you could always just change the gears in your stock camaro rearend so either way its not a big deal.
