I couldn't find a twelve bolt back then for the love of money, stumbled on the Dana for 200.00!
Wonder what that dana is worth now...id bet its worth what 5 twelve bolts are worth now. Don't hesitate...run the 10 bolt with confidence. Newer chev pickups (88-98) had a 1350 yoke on the rear ends...get a yoke and seal for a newer pickup and it will work with your camaro 8.5. If its legal I would have 9in ford ends welded onto your 8.5 and use ford axels to get away from leaky c-clip eliminators. I can't stop them from leaking on my Wagon. Gasket paper/silicone and they still leak.
