need advice with built 93 lt1 rearend.

Ok here's the problem. I have a 93 lt1 camaro without getting into details i have a 500 rwhp car with a 150 wet shot. Ignore my signature as i have not updated it in quite some time. I have invested over 15k in the car and im getting strapped for cash. Im buying a performabuilt 700r4 which ill use with a 3000 stall hughes with lockup. I can't afford a 12 bolt gm or strange 9 inch. I do have a 8.8 traction lok rear in my 88 thunderbird turbo coupe. I was wondering how this rearend would hold up in the camaro? It has 4.10s in the 10 bolt and 3.55's in the 8.8 . Wha is involved in the swap? Any insight would be great

There are people who convert the 8.8 Ford rear to the 4th Gens, and they seem to hold up. The tricky part will be figuring out how to attach the torque arm.

I figured it would be a lengthy process but would save me over 1000 since i have the rear already.
