a rearend with posi from a 96,have to assume you mean 96 Z28 since you mention posi.going into a 01 base model,again have to assume you mean V6.
Both 96 Z28 and 01 V6 had optional Traction Control 4 channel system and is not compatible with the standard ABS only 3 channel system. You have to make sure the replacement rearend is the same channel as the car it's going into.
Give US more info,then we can give you more info.

you haven't mentioned gear ratios yet. if the gear ratio is differernt,you'll need the computor 'tuned/retuned' to correct the speedometer.
