Gear Ratio

Recommended Posts

Ok here is the deal when I bought my car, which is a 1972 Cutlass, the guy didn't remeber what size gear's he put in the rear-end. So I went under my car and found the the driveshaft turns twice while the tire turn's once, and I was wondering if any of you knew how to find out what the gear ratio is.

2.73's are stock gears, that's why I said it. http://forums.off-topic.net/images/smilies/slap.gif
