I have no idea, the guy told me he had 3:42 gears installed but the diff isnt working (one tire fryer) so we pulled the cover off to investigate and the numbers match on the ring and pinion gears 40 13.. I know its supposed to be a 3 channel rear end by looking for one sensor on top (car doesnt have T/C) but I dont know how to tell what series it is..??

I went to take some pics and one of our mechanics got it figured out we think.. right on the backing plate for the brakes on the drivers said in chalk it reads 98 Camaro so we are assuming its an open rear end out of a V6 Camaro.. Im not sure if 3:08 was an option for them or not though..
I didnt get a pic but mine looks like this one with the center pin and 4 gears around it, not sure if that helps

Oh good lord NO I didn't buy a new one. The dealership bought it. Its a reman unit with a 1 year warranty for 800. Didn't cost me a dime :-)
