2.73, 3.23, 3.42. Depends on the transmission.

You can look at the rpo codes on the door and tell. It should a GU_ code. That will tell what the car has in it.

No 2.73s ever came in any '98-'02 SS. GU5 (3.23) was a required option when WU8 (SS) was selected with MX0/M30 (automatic trans, 4L60E).

If the SS was an A4, then it came with 3.23s. If it was an M6, it came with 3.42s. Those were the only gears offered for SS, so it's either one or the other depending on trans type.
