i dont think many v6's came with the GU6 option. if it is a manual, then it most likely has the GU5 option.
Z28 rears do not swap in as easy as you think. the strut mounts in the back use diffent hardware than the V6. it can be done, but you need alot of extra parts.
Shawn, how is the new rear treating you so far?
Just to clarify, GU2=2.73,
, I know from experience, and you're right Corey, not many V6s came with 3.42s, that was part of the Y87 performance package (with dual exhaust, no fancy tips). I learned that after I bought my first camaro, a V6 (which I got rid of for the TA). I'm pretty sure most of the V6s came with an open diff. 3.08 tho.
Anyway, to answer you're question, I love it. It was inexpensive, thanks to Devil505, not too hard to do (I did it with some assistance), and I can definitely "feel it pull" a little harder. Hell, at WOT, most of the time I can get a little chirp going into 2nd.
