2000 Chevy Rear End in a 69?? Will it work?

[Nick]

Hey Fellaz,
Im in the process of putting my 69 back together, but I need to get a new rearend or do a WHOLE lot of work to my old one. My current rear end is a 12 bolt, but has 373 and I want a 308 posi. Also I have a lot of brackets welded on top for my old air bag setup. I don’t want to carefully cut off all the old brackets (including the original trailing arm mounts) and have to replace the 373 with a 308 posi if I can simply replace the Whole thing with a new rear end out of a 99 or newer chevy. My only concern is whether the wheel base is the same length, and is the bolt pattern the same on my 69 six lug as the newer chevy six lugs. If you guys have any good info let me know..
