stock gear ratio
anyone got a good way to figure out what gear ratio my 88 vert came with?
|
A good way to figure that out would be by searching.
To answer your question it came with 3.90. |
4.1 unless it's an automatic, which would be the 3.9. 89-91 GTUs came with 4.3

Unless someone changed the diiff: '88 Vert-3.90 whether a 5 speed or auto. '89-'91 Vert-4.10 whether 5 speed or auto. |

I was told that 88 verts had 3.9 a while back. I did some searching and found this:

Not sure though. There were Automatics and there were 5-Speed manuals both sold. Axle ratio depends on the year and equipment. All Verts were also open diffs, no LSD's spec'd. There are rumors that some verts had LSD's that were simply put in during assembly as the factory used up the available parts stock. That is unlikely, but not impossible... |

I am holding the original 88 brochure in my hand right now. It says:
M-5 Convertible 1 - 3.475 2 - 2.002 3 - 1.366 4 - 1.000 5 - 0.711 R - 3.493 Final - 3.909 However, there is no telling what is in the car 21 years later if you do not know its history. |
why would they put a taller gear in a heavy ass car lol.
Must save some gas on the highway, though the weight is holding that back. |
