I took and hacked a Ford 8.8 center section and slid my old 7.5" 10bolt tubes in it after laything them down. This was for my 01 Camaro. It allowed me to keep the ABS and traction control. I also got rid of the Torque Arm and made the LCA's in to a short ladder bar (Pete Z-bars).

I did all this as I was worried aobut breaking the small 10 bolt in my camaro being a 6 speed and 510rwhp. Sold the car shortly after.

Now I have heard you can convert the truck 12bolt rear to a car 12 bolt rear. Is this true? Would that be worth it?
