Seriously, a lot of the pro stock guys spray PAM in the wheel wells and lower quarters so cleanup is easier. |

It's been awhile since worked on any of those rears,I was trying to remember but not sure but I think you could put 12 bolt unit in those rears if I remember correctly.

Re: Question on 68-72 Olds type "O" Rear
I don't think a 12 bolt posi will go in. Olds used the same posi from 3.42 to 5.00 ratio.

Re: Question on 68-72 Olds type "O" Rear
No, unfortunately you can't put a 12-bolt Chevy carrier in an Olds housing. Funny thing is, although the "O" type had a 12-bolt cover, the carrier used 10 bolts to retain the ring gear. I wish I had a nickel for every time someone told me they threw one of those out years ago. An "O" type rear with positraction can go for pretty good money nowadays. Richmond does offer new 3.42 and 3.91 gears for the "O" type if anyone needs 'em.
