Post Rear End Swap?

I had a question, I tried to search for a thread like this but I guess I might have not worded it right or something. But I have an 1984 Stock camaro, with the stock 10-bolt limited slip rear end. We got a totaled 1994 z28 that was hit in the front that I took the rear out of, I was wondering how much trouble it would be to put the z28 rear in my car? I have drum brakes and the z28 has disks, also do you think its worth messing with? The car is a daily driver so I don't have anything real monsterous in it, I just wanna upgrade some things and I felt this would be the most cheapest option, correct me if I am wrong

The 4th Gen 10-bolt rear axle assembly is 3" wider than the one in your 3rd Gen. You can resolve that issue with wheels with a larger offset. You have to decide if you want to get into that.

it is absoluetly worth it because its an easy disc brake conversion, another limited slip
the downside is that you can't use the stock rims since the rear end is wider
