How can I determine the gear ratio of the rear end?
Does anyone know how I can determine the gear ratio of the rear end? I have a 74 L82, 4sp, a/c with all power, and a positraction rear end. I do not have the build sheet nor the original window sticker.
Thanks,
Ken

Lift the rear of the car and place it in neutral. Rotate a rear wheel exactly once while counting driveshaft revolutions. 3 1/2 is probably a 3.55, 3 is likely a 3.06. etc...
