Chevrolet By The Numbers shows (COW) under 70 Camaros as a 3.55 and (COX) as a posi 3.55. So, I'm sure this rear was used in both the Camaro and Firebird line. Looks like starting in 71 they went with 2 digit codes.

Tom, check and see if any of your 70 Novas have the same cast number.

My 70 Nova L78 cars both have the same casting number as the one I listed. The center section is the same for Nova and the Camaro...difference is in the width of the complete housing...Nova is one inch shorter. 55 1/4 vs. 55 1/4...spring perch locations are also a little wider on the Camaro...and the axles are longer.

Thanks Tom!! My L34 has the same cast number also. I was curious if they did share the same center section.
