I believe that they put 3.27's in the 99-04 v6's and GT's.

I wish I had my service manual still (I sold it with the car). It mentioned in the front how to decode the door jamb sticker...and one of them was for the axle ratio. So, if you have a factory service manual, you could use that.

BUT, I believe that there is a metal tag on the rear differential that has the ratio. If memory serves, for the 3.55 rears in the Mach 1, it said something like 3L55. So, your differential should have something similar.

Also, if you are planning to change the gears, I believe that a lot of people recommend 4.10's with the auto, and 3.73's for the manual in the V6's.

Just an FYI, if you didn't already know.

Nah Im not changing gears. I bought PaulFs Xcalibrator 2 tuner and thought that I needed a new tune, but we have the same calibration code, so I dont need to. However everytime that I put a tune in, my car starts to tick. I dont know how to fix that.
