My came of of a 72 Omega and I also used the pitman arm( I bought the pitman arm new at CarQuest)
67-69 camaro
??- 74 Omega, Ventura, GTO, Apalo
66-67 chevelle, and el-camino, the box is the same but not the pitman arm.

These are just some that I know off. Hope this helps a little

Pretty much any manual box from the "classic" cars will work. I know any F body/x body box would work. I've heard the S-10 box is a direct bolt in as well. How about a Corvette or Corvair box? I don't see what would be different there either. Same with the A bodies 66-72. The manual box in my Firebird (67) is from a 71 Malibu.

While the s-10 box bolts right in.The steering coupler is different.However I read in the new car craft that the rag joint out of a 2wd chevy truck from 73-87 will connect the two togother.

Also I read the s-10 box along with the camaro box doesn't have enough to "travel"To turn the wheels the lock to lock.I am not sure if this is going to be an issue since my car should mainly be for 1/4 mile runs..
