I had a1989 IROC Z that I lent to a friend and he totaled it. Now I am building a 1995 Z28 but
the rear end in the IROC Z is posi trac and the one in the 95 Z28 is not and was thinking
about swapping them out.

Any 10 bolt from an 82-02 camaro should work. Just check the suspension mounts. Both should be the torque arm style suspension.

the 82-92 rear ends are narrower than the 93-02. they will fit but wheels will be further in.

most f-body rear diffs for z28 ss formula and trans am are limited slip. it locks both axels under heavy acceleration. but normal driving while turning 1 can spin slower. most 82-92 are open only 1 live axel. some like gta 's and z28 and irocs got the limited slip

Actually the 82-92 rear ends were only 1/10th of an inch narrower, really doesn't make a difference. 82-92 were 101.0 93-02 were 101.1

It will work just fine. Took one from '85 Z-28 and put it in an '96 Firebird. Very little modification only if you want for racing. No mods for everyday driving.
