Some were open, some weren't. You need the rpo code. Since the car is 20 years old, if it does have a posi it is probably shot.

acctualy the RPO code for posi in a thirdgen (or 4th i believe for that matter) is G80, in an 85 trans am it will be a 9 bolt australian rear end, all posi rear ends have rear disk brakes as well, gearing will be 3.27 or 2.77, very strong rear ends as well as very expensive with very hard to find parts
