Default please quick answer, 37 teeth and 9 teeth

I just pulled the differential cover off my rearend. 9 teeth on the pinion 37 on the ring gear. What is my ratio? I did the math but do not see that being possible. I did not think that the aftermarket made that ratio for my axle. Please an answer before I put the cover back on.

That's what I come up with. But who makes a 4:11 for these cars? I found what I think might be a part # 3626 stamped on the ring gear and wrote in white marking pen with the backlash.

I also found 7384-4K 9x37 stamped on the ring gear. I could barely make it out but it look like a trade symbol. mc? with a box around it.

I think I figured it out, M G not M C MG= Motive Gear 9 teeth by 37 teeth is their 4:10. The math for some reason comes out to 4:11. I do not know why they call them a 4:10 though. I always wondered why everybody else complained that their M6 bogged out on the highway in 6th gear, mine always cruised along just fine.

Motive definitely makes a 37/9 4.11 gearset. I am not sure who if anyone, makes a 4.10.
