Rear gear ?


Alright guys I'm trying to figure out what rear gears my coupe has..when I baught the car I was told it had 3.73 gears, but after driving it I figured there was no way because of teh way it pulls. I figured it might be a 4.10, This morning I took it out for a quick spin and noticed that at around 35mph its doin 2200rpm, there is no way thats a 4.10 right? keep in mind its running a c4 trans with shift kit and 3200 stall. Is my trans and stall making it seem like a lower gear?

Jack up the rear, spin a rear tire around exactly one time, count how many times the drive shaft goes around. That is your ratio. 3 and 3/4 times, 3.73, just over 4, 4.10, etc.. Works every time.
