    Stock was 2.73 with a manual, but there was an option to upgrade to 3.27's. Pretty sure these are 2.73's, but I will double check.

    Ratio numbers should be stamped on the gears. I didn't know that once and ended up with 3.08s instead of the described 3.27's. Ah youth.....

    I'm looking for a good, tall, highway gear to use on a future build...

    Confirmed they were 2.73's. 41 teeth on ring gear / 15 teeth on pinion = 2.733. Repeating of course*.

    Bonus points for anyone that actually gets that reference.

    No, eventually planning on building a '65 Cobra Daytona Coupe and need a good highway gear for getting to/from work... many years down the road, but have to start planning now.

    This just sold on the Bring-a-trailer auction.

    As for gears, runs something more aggressive and then put a Gearvendor overdrive on it.

    That is exactly what I'm planning on (and basic budget to build).

    $21,990 will get you the complete kit, short driveline, paint, and tires. My plan would be to retire the AI car to cannibalize the driveline/brakes/wheels.

    Thanks for clearing that up Marshall! Now we can quit trying figure out how you were planning to gain a competitive advantage by running 2:73's and get back to work.

    They work great for me, I only use 1st and 2nd gear at most tracks, TWS I have to use 3rd!
