It's going to be either 2.73 or 3.23. You can find out by checking the SPID sticker on the inside edge of the driver's side door. You will see a little white sticker with your VIN number on the top and lots of 3 digit RPO (Regular Production Order/Option) codes.
Look for either GU2 (2.73 gears) or GU5 (3.23 gears).
Hope that helps.

GU5 is a required extra cost option for all the WU8 (SS) and WS6 cars, when they are optioned with MX0 & M30 (4L60E auto trans).
