Default 2000 10 bolt swap?

Will the rear from a 2000 WS6 (6spd) swap into a 1994 v6 (auto) Camaro without excessive effort?

Keeping in mind the camaro will be keeping it's drum brakes as the 2000 rear dosn't have the caliper mounts and backing plates with it.

Could the gear set and diff just be swapped? I'm basically looking to have 3.42s and a posi from the WS6 in the camaro.

No need to pull the rear ends if you know basically how to take them apart. Hopefully they are matching 3 channel or 4 channel that will make it more simple. But basically the housings are the same so take everything and swap it in. Also, it wouldnt hurt to wipe the gears before you pull them in the WS6 and then recheck them once you get them inserted into the other housing to verify the pattern is close. Also might as well throw some new bearings in it while your in there. Hell, just swap the whole rear without taking it apart, that'll be easier
