I agree with lust4speed. I would ditch the Olds.
Many options, but just a question of how you want to do it. The early 70’s GM A body 10 bolt I think is 1/2” wider than the original that was in your ‘66, but they are strong and parts available. Nothing wrong with a 8.2 original A body rear, but some poo poo them on being weaker.
Where are you located?
