is it possible
 

to swap a 94 corvette independent rear into a 96 trans am? i know there will be custom work but would it be worth it?

worth it, doubt it. cool factor? +2

You plan on open tracking or autocrossing it?

Its been done, can't find the pics at the moment. But why?

You are going to spend a fortune to put a rear that rivals the 10 bolt in suckyness...

mostly tracking so it probably wouldn't be worth it. i was just wondering how much it would cost to put it in there because its def a step up from the rear in my car, plus i heard those rear drive shafts can handle around 450hp. i could def take corners like a champ lol

What is "tracking"?

drag, sorry lol i have always wanted to do like a road course though. it would be a mostly drag car pretty much. i always thought they weren't that bad to drag with.

then no, I cannot see how this "would it be worth it"

thanks for the input, i figure if I'm going to have that IRS i should see if i can use it to better my car.

yeah deff not worth it. sell it if you can to a c4 guy. maybe they will rebuild it and swap gears while its out

thats true i hear they go for good money..12 bolt fund:mrgreen:

How much are you getting the C4 for?

a grand, the guy took the interior out of it because his vette caught fire lol. its an awesome deal for a motor and trans with 44k on it.(im getting it from one of my dads buddies)

Hows the body?

not sure to tell you the truth, my dad called me and told me he found me a 94 vette for a grand with 44k on the motor. i didn't get a chance to dip into detail about it because my family left for the shore before i got back from work friday lol. i will have all the details up tonight on it if anyone is interested in parts.

Post pics when you get em

yeah, no problem

I as well thought about a C4 transaxle conversion into the camaro. I do autocross, so it might be nice to have IRS, even though the C4's have some geometry issue's.

Would probably be cheaper to just buy and fix the Vette. And as above, if you swap then you have to deal with geometry issues and extra driveline alignment BS.

yeah, you basically got to start from scratch, no tech articles on this, nor kits, you have to fab all the mounting points,and do some customizing with the DS and what not to get it to work.

yeah screw that lol. its one thing if there was a kit for it and it could be done without custom fab work but to have to do all custom stuff to gain pretty much nothing isnt worth it.

You *MIGHT* be able to find a street rod shop that could help you.

yeah, but prob the cost of that i could have a 12 bolt and some extra cash lol

Without question.

screw the IRS lol a nice 12 bolt with 4.10's sounds good to me
