Default Stock gear ratios

Apparently my search skills suck, I can't find all the OEM gear ratios anywhere. I'm trying to find the manual tranny ratios for the base GS and zo6 as well as rear end.

Last shot. Thanks, eboggs_jkvl. Z06 and base (without Z51) are the same.

Guess that explain's why the GS advertises lower 0 to 60 time's than the base model, even though it's 100 lbs heavier. Never made sense to me before.

It's got that sneaky Z51 gearing to be quick.
