usualy the aods have 3.08s and are optioned with 3.27s.....finding an aod with 2.73s is actualy kind of rare.

Thanks mk thats very helpful, but I already tried it and came up with about three diff. ratios for an 86GT and wasnt specific enough. If you know a good site then let me know.

Your right. I pulled the 8.8 out of a 93 and bought some 3.73s to put in it. Cant wait to get it set up so I can put it in!
