    Hey guys,
    I have a stock 65 skylark GS auto car that has a posi in it with a 3.42 gear in it [as near as I can tell]
    Is this a 10 bolt or a 12 bolt? :Do No: :Do No: :Do No:

    Depends on where it was built.. All American cars had standard a 10 bolt. Canadian cars required a 12 bolt rear.

    You can see what rear it is by looking on the bottom of the driver side tube for 2 letters stamped there. Here's the chart for the ratio numbers. :TU:
