I don't understand why any of you haven't just taken a Kappa RWD setup and used it for the Balt? I mean you're aware the LNF was designed for the Kappa originally right? After GM trickled it down to other platforms. The Kappa RWD would bolt on to the LNF, np problem. I can see having to get a custom driveshaft etc.

I suspect there is more to it than just bolting it in.
