Default Can somebody verify '02 SS T56 gear ratios for me?

Are these the right gear ratios for a T56 from a 2002 SS?

1st 2.66:1
2nd 1.78:1
3rd 1.30:1
4th 1.00:1
5th 0.74:1
6th 0.50:1

Cool. Thx... I'm using that to figure out what I want for a rear end ratio.

You know what they say... Measure twice, buy once

I have 4.10 now, I'm going to go for 3.89 on a ford 9" with 305 35 R 18's in the back

I should be able to launch in 2nd, and hit just over 100 in 3rd... Trying for a decent 0-100-0 time.

got to f-body.org. . they have a calculator that I use... since my speedo is broken.. i just print out what section in need and use the RPM's and what gear I am in to know my speed is. You can change the rear gears and/or tire size to find out your rpm vs speed if that is what your trying to find out.
