9 rear end make?
9 rear end make? 
Hey guys,
So I just bought a 99 Camaro z28. The car has an aftermarket 9 rear end. The owner had NO idea the brand of rear end. I got under the car today and snapped a few pictures (bad quality). I also noticed on the rear end it had ME - 008 stamped on it. Maybe a MOSER? Any help is appreciated.
Also trying to determine the gear ratio. I think he had the speedo calibrated for the new gears cuz its only
off like 2km/h. When doing 100km/hr or 60 miles/hour its sitting at 2100 rpm with a 275/40R17 tire. Any guesses on the ratio? Car is an A4.

Unless it's different from a stock A4 Trans Am, it's a 2.73...which is what I have.
Did you know the rear was aftermarket before you bought it?

To the OP, sounds like it has 3.73 based on my past experiences with rpm/mph

Well I got my car up on the hoist today and found a serial tag on the center section showing Strange Engineering and a serial number. Is it likely that strange would have specific information on this center section? Also is this common to have a Moser housing with strange center section?

and thats exactly what it appears someone did! Moser housing, strange center section and bear pro axles ... I have the rear pulled apart just havent taken the center section out. I believe its a spool 👎 and the axles are 35 spline.
