Smile Rearends for a V8 and V6?

Hey guys I was just wondering if the rearends on a V8 Camaro are any different than a V6? The model years I am wondering are the 4th Gen Camaros. I have the oppurtunity to get a nice V6 Camaro for an incredibly low price. I am going to put a crate engine in it if I buy it but would like to know if there is any strength differences between the 2 rearends. Thanks for all of your help.

I've heard the V6 rear ends didn't have a posi, but I'm not 100% sure.
