Climb under the car and look at the tag on the rear end. They all should have a sticker that says the rearend ratio.

why dont you just look at your window sticker, manual with no gear upgrade is 3.31 and if you have 3.55 or 3.73 it should say so.

$200-$250 without the cost of the gears. go 4.10s.

Are u sure?? I thougt it was more like 5hundo for my cobra? If that's the case, that aint bad at all... Anybody here have the 4.10's? The car feels super peppy as it is with the 3.30's I couldn't imagine. I wonder if that'd kill the high rev powerband which feels right about where this car shines, 4-6500?

EDIT: I chirped 2nd-4th on the way to work tonight.... Love this damn car!

Put the car in your 1:1 gear ratio. Put the car on jack stands in the rear. Find a reference point on the tire. Have a friend lay under the car(on jack stands) and YOU rotate the tire exactly 1 revolution. Count how many times the driveshaft rotates per 1-tire rotation. If it's 3.31 times.....guess what? If it turns 3.73 times.........4.10 times...etc.
