Default REAR END SWAP?

Will a rear end from a 72 Nova bolt up to my 68 Camaro? My uncle said that I would have to use my leaf springs, but I thought thatI couldtake springs and all. Reason being is that he just bought a 12 bolt for his and the 10 bolt that is in the car is 3 years old. The 12 bolt that is in my car nowwas fudged by the previous owner. It sets to the left about 1/2 inch.

You can buy new spring perches from summit or jegs so dont throw out the 12 bolt they are bringing a good price.

Sorry havn't been on in a few days. I'm looking at getting a 10 bolt with 3.08's. I'm not concerned with the gears though. I have some 3.73's back home in WV if I want them. Griff, What are "spring perches", and how will they move my rear end to the left or right? I didn't think you could do that without welding new brackets. Thanks Shaun
