Theres a slight chance its from a GT. Were in process of figuring it out.

But a question what is involved in swapping in the 8.8.

you could use the stock brakes, lines, and my stock axle right?

am i missing anything else? I dont want to get the 8.8 rear end and end up getting screwed over and having to spend even more money. Like he said its pretty much just the rearend without the axle and brakes etc.
