I think I've looked up every google match on pontiac 8.2 rears, and saw so much conflicting info that it is very confusing. One of the things that I recall reading is that only with the chevy 8.2 rears is the 68-72 rears different. I also read that in mid-model year 1966, the GTO's switched to a wider rear.
