Lots of weight difference. The 65 and other early Chevelles did not have disc brakes, but they can be swapped in from later A bodies.

All had drum brakes. The Z16 had Chevy "big car" drum brakes.

Boxed frame from a convertible, non posi 12 bolt and the only gear choiche was 3.31? Rear swaybar to improve traction?
