I can't comment as I have never compared the two. There can't be much difference though. If you get stuck I have a couple of gemini diffs kicking around in Hawkes Bay

Two different Chev' diffs - the hatch and wagon one with inclined* dampers and the panhard rod fitted tot he passenger side and the saloon with vertical* dampers and the panhard rod fitted to the driver's side.
*can't remember if the damper mount on the diff is the same or different.

to fit a gem wagon diff into my vette wagon i just needed to drill out a couple of holes (the frontbracket bit? they wouldnt swap over) and modify the brake line a bit

Hatch & Wagon diffs are the same style.. Just need to swap brakeline junction and drill out the torque tube mount.

why do you want to fit a vette diff into a gem? or did I read that wrong? Same as everyone above, minor tweaks and will go straight in. The only Chevette diff I have is in the gruntiest Chevette I have- maybe they aint so bad

*** no one has addressed this bit... not sure if the driveshaft would bolt on if you are keeping stock engine setup...
