Blue 86 Chevy has a 350 with posi
Red 86 Chevy has a 454 without posi

I want my MORE powerful engine to have the posi track rear end.

IS THIS POSSIBLE???
I had a 10 bolt in my 87 2wd, I bought a used empty 12 bolt housing from a 78 4wd (if i remember right) all my brake stuff bolted up to it, it was a 6 lug originally I installed Superior axles in 5x5 bolt pattern I think they was like $220 from summit I used my stock drive shaft too

so you should be able to but just the difference in axles bolt pattern it what you might want to look in to?
