Factory rear end housing options?


Recommended Posts

Ok, I've been trolling around these forums for quite a while trying to gather the information I am looking for.  I currently do not have a first gen monte however I do have very firm deal on a 72 right now.  This is a 350/350 car.  My question is does this car have a 8.5 10 bolt or an 8.2?  I can't use his lift at his shop for a while because of other projects.  If I could get under the car right now I would be able to distinguish between the two and I'm curious if and when the 8.2 was phased out.

From what I have observed is it seems all 350 2 barrel cars came with the 10 bolt rear. I'm assuming all 350 4 barrel cars came with the 12 bolt rear as mine did, 72 "J" code Custom. Basing this on only what I have seen though, and I have seen WAY more 350 2 barrel cars than 350 4 barrel cars. Curious myself if this is truly the case.
