i had 4.10s in my 10 bolt( although i think the 10 bolt in the camaro/T/A is different) and after about a year or so it blew up. If the 10 bolts in the Camaro/ T/A are different you will be good.

same rear for T/A Camaro, 3.73 are good trade off for steeper gears, better than 3.42 but thick enough ring gear for durability

oh ok...then id stay away from the 4.10s. Im not sure what other peoples luck has been but the only way theres gonna be gears in my beast now is when it gets the GN/TR rear end.
