GU5 is 3.23
GU2 is 2.73
Look on the sticker on your driver's side door.
Also, the search button does wonders.

how can you tell him to search, and when you showed him an example, GU5 was in your search title? Like he is supposed to know what the hell GU5 is! That's why he's asking because he has no idea how to check. What is he supposed to search for? Gears? Like he wouldn't get a million possible threads... bad example.

Everything else is reasonable except housing. It's logical though. You pay for living in paradise...at least compared to MI it's paradise.
capt - post your gear ratio so we can get this back to tech talk or one of the bully mods might lock it.

So, on the sticker that says "Service Parts Identification" if it says GU5 I have 3.23's.....wow, this could have solved a lot of problems for me. How about an LS6 intake? Or did any pre '01 cars come with those?

no pre 01 cars came with an LS6 intake, and it really isn't a good 'first couple of mods' type mod to do. Make sure you have full exhaust, and then work intake w/ lid being first.

A H/C car can benefit from a LS6 intake. I wouldn't do it until at least a cam is thrown in the mix.
cerebrex is right. '01 & '02's came with the LS6 intake manifold.

I was transferred from San Diego to Wichita 11 years ago. My $225,000 house there is now worth $675,000. My $225,000 house here is still worth $225,000. Needless to say, I won't be moving back. In any case, thank God you have 3.23s. 2.73s are miserable. How do I know? I've had both. Had to swap the 2.73s out for 3.42s.

I wouldn't worry about the 2.73's for now. If and when you are ready to swap them, don't go to a 3.23 or a 3.42. Do some research, but a 3.73 or a 4.10 is the way to go IMO. 4.10's are tough with nitrous...just do some research.
