Do you mean what ratio? You probably have a 3.42. Is you car a 6M?

With the RPO codes in the drives door, search for RPO and 3.42 or some similar combo; there is a post with a list of a bunch of the RPO codes, you just need to find the one with gear codes.

There is a web page out there that will decode all your RPO's.
I think it's something like camarosource.com or something.
Google it and find out.

Most likely if you have a 4th gen and a manual, you have 3.42's
