Default 2 or 3 series carrier?

I have a 95 z28 however the rear end in my car is out of a 2001 trans am. it is still utilizing the factory torsen locker but has had 3:73 gears installed on it. and obviously i can't determine the factory gearing or carrier type based off of my build code because its out of a different car. I'm switching to a 4:10 gear and need to know if i have a 2 or 3 series carrier. I am 99% sure it is a 3 series because it is the 3 channel abs system and the reluctor ring for it is about half an inch or so wide. in picutres the 2 series ring looks like it is closer to 1/8 or 1/4 inch wide and apears to have a lip where the gear sits against it which mine does not have but i want to be sure before i order the gears. any input would be much appreciated.

Most likely the 3 series carrier. The 2 series was limited to gearing that you could put in it since the 2 series carrier usually had 2.73 gears
