Hey guys,
Im in the process of tackling the rear end for a future AI camaro. I've seen different set ups for different applications.
I currently have 85 Iroc with 7 5/8 stock 3.73, with Power Traxx posi. I carry ZR1 11" on back with spacers. Id like to beef up rear, add disc brakes and set up proportioning valve. Which option would be best for least money. Chattanooga, TN.

If you are the kind of guy that does his own work then you can get by just fine with a 10 bolt. Suppress wheelhop as best you can and make sure its set up right. If you drive over curbs and thru the dirt and grass like me than you should be breathing the throttle to go easy on the parts.

On the other hand a 9" can offer more flexibility and options with parts, quickchange capability and of course stronger. More weight and up front cost though.
