Default Gear ratio?

How can I find out what gear ratio my car has in it? I've heard that there are a few that came in them stock.

U got me all wrong dude, I am asking for my own personal knowledge. If I race the gto, thats cool but he has nothing to do with this. I have been wondering since I got the car, I just didn't think there was any way for me to find out.

Well that would be a big nevermind on the checking the sticker on the door. I only have two on there and there are not any codes on either just like the tire load rating and stuff. Oh well, I just wanted to know as much about my car as I could. I guess that piece of trivia will elude me for a while longer.

No big deal anyways, if your car is stock it is either 2.73 or 3.23..

Upgrade to 3.73s and a stall and have fun!
