3.42 was a V6 auto option. V6s had different gear options than V8s

I just chnaged my read diff fluid today. I had noticed that my RPMs never matched exactly what that gear chart said, so I actually counted the teeth while I had the cover off. Sure enough 42/13=3.23076923..... But when I'm going 65 on the highway the tach reads about 2100 rpm, I guess it's a little off.

Good call, I'm pretty damn sure you're right about that. But, from the looks of his handle (Juicedz28) he has a Z28. So whatever his RPO code is, that's what he has. Unless he bought the car used and somebody swapped them out?
Peace,

This I'm not sure about with the later cars. My car has 2.73's and GU2 on the door, yet I have selectable 1st gear on the console, and the shifter DOES go there. I pulled the console to clean it, and there was a stamp that said this:
GU2: PRND2
GU5: PRND21
So maybe the later years, even the GU2 got the selectable 1st?
