I need to know the width (backing plate) to same of a late 60's full size GM. My 50 Pontiac is about 54/55" width and I'm thinking of using one of these differentials for my build.

Hi, I have a 1965 Parisienne Convertible which lost its original engine at some point along the way. The owners manual lists the original engine #805504170. Does anyone know how to determine from this code what the original engine was that came in the car? Thanks.

What vehicles would have a compatible differential with a 327 1967 Parisienne? Would a 1964 differential work? Would the 64 fuel tank also swap over? let me know!

I'm getting ready to completely rebuild the Gp's rear suspension. And while the standard 12 bolt diff is out, I'm going to add Posi. Any thoughts on a good gear supplier before I click buy?

Does anyone know of someone that can set up and or repair a 12 bolt, in or near the Calgary vicinity? That is, for a reasonable price, not $1000's.

I bought a 12 bolt 8.875" Super shim and Solid pinion spacer kit from a shop in BC. It came with a magnet, and I'm wondering if I should use it, and if I do, where should it go? Is it something that should always be done? My cover is aluminum, so without epoxy, it won't sit there.
