It's not on the VIN. There is an option code sticker, located in or under the center console glove box that shows how the car was built. Here are some codes I found, but I don't know if all apply to the 1989. GH0 - 3.54 Rear Axle Ratio GM1 - 2.59 Rear Axle Ratio GU2 - 2.73 Rear Axle Ratio GW4 - 3.31 Rear Axle Ratio G44 - 3.07 Rear Axle Ratio

i have a 1978 corvette pace car , automatic trans , how do I find the rear end gear ratio, ,based on vin # or rpo code ????
