More specifically, they used them in 71-74 Ventura II's (and 74 GTO's). These rearends will bolt right in to a 67-69 Firebird. If you're after a replacement for your 8.2, I'd highly recommend upgrading to the 8.5. They are stronger, are much cheaper for any type of part, and they have the GM interchange thing going for them. They were built from 71- 87(aprrox year) and the internals are all pretty much interchangable.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
