Default rear end swap

I have a 91 Z28 that has a 305 tpi set up. The rear end is basically shot, has way too much slop and needs a rebuild. I have a parts car that has a 2.8 V6 in it, and was wondering if I could just swap that rear end into my z28 while I rebuild the other one and put a little taller gears in it. I don't know if they were the same rear end or if they put a stiffer one in the z's with a little higher gear. Mine right now has the 3.43 stock gears in it. Would anyone know the gears that are in the V6 one?
