Default Swapping Rear End Gears??

Ok im getting ready to buy my ring and pinion and have narrowed it down to the 3:73 ratio and 3:90 ratio im still a little undecided, ive been looking at several different brands but think i am going to go with Motive Gear, my car is a 99 Camaro Z28 A4 and i believe it has 3:23's in it right now, does anybody know what size rearend my car has? and what spline so i know what gears to order?
Help on this would be great!! Thanks!!

You need to verify which gears you hae now before ordering new ones. Reason being, if you have the stock 2.73s, you have a different series carrier than the 3.23 cars. So make sure to check your RPOs for the axle code (GU2 = 2.73, GU5 = 3.23).
