Default gear ?

Im thinking of putting new gears in my 87. My buddy said the 373's out of his camaro (90) will fit. Anyone know if thats true? Are there any gears out of other cars that will match? thanks

You don't state wether you have a manual or auto, but either way those gears are not going to fit

Those gears sound way too much for an L98

Those gears won't work at all. And that is a lot of gear if you have a stock engine and automatic.

Nothing wrong with the ratio, but the gears out of a Camaro rear will not fit in a Dana 36/44.
