69 Nova 350/255/280. 3250# in G/SA. 3390# in H/SA. 8.5" 10-bolt rear. Broke a couple teeth off 1 set of gears in 7 years. Strange c-clip eliminators, 33 spline axles, spool, richmond gears. Your results may vary.

You could always change the axle ends. It wouldn't hurt to weld the axle tubes to the center too.

Yeah..
Got a special case here.
Moser, Strange and MW do not specialize on B-Bodys.

Right now a new with good parts will cost $5000, Damn !

One asked if a G-Body 8.5 rear would fit.

look at the Police 91C rears they generally came with disc brakes---or as somebody said cut the ends off and put 12 bolt ends on it--google what you are trying to do others have put G body rears into a B body just have to rework the arms and move the brake hose/shock holes etc. to match what you have

My rear is identical to a 9C1 Cop car.
Impalas are an Inch shorter per side as they came with Wide Tires.

Don Compolito Impala has a 12 Bolt with Drum Brakes.
Wonder who made his?

I don’t have a clue why anyone building a race car wouldn’t use the best parts!
