First, the car is a 72 El Camino. It was originally a SS 350 4spd if that matters. When I purchased it a few years ago, I was told it had a Pontiac 12 bolt 3.42 gear in it. That's about as much as I know aside from the following pictures.

It appears to have a C-Clip eliminator kit installed. Possibly bigger axles.
To keep you from having to count I believe they are 31 spline. 1.2326" diameter.

Years ago I bought a disk brake kit and I'm trying to install it. I believe the C-Clip eliminator kit is messing me up. That's another story, I'm just trying to confirm the ID of the rear end and modifications so I can figure out the next step in the rebuild.

I'm not sure if there are other numbers or information you need. Please let me know.
Thanks
Dan

"O" 12 bolt from a olds a-body not as strong as a chevy 12 bolt but stronger than a 8.2" 10 bolt. I think some of them got 31 splines axles instead of 28 splines.
