what is the stock gear ratio on it.?????

Check you driver side B pillar. There is a code on there. I would have to say 3:08's
3:27's were an option.

Gears might help the 6

yes, i got 3.73's on my 6, and I am loving it:) Congrats on the 8.8 find. You plan on getting blown anywhere down the road? Maybe even look into 4.10's.

it could be 2.73 or 3.08 (before 95) or 3.27 (96+)

You dont know that, it could be anywhere from what hungry hippo said.

Todd there should be a metal tag that is mounted somewhere on the rear axel that has a lot of letters and #'s almost like a VIN#. Write all the #'s down and go look up the # in teh chiltons book for whatever year axel that is from. That will tell you exactly what gear ratio came in that rear end. They all have this metal tag unless soemone took it off which I doubt.

2.73's were standard, 3.08's were an option. i'm pretty sure if the car came with the 17" tribars then it had 3.08's

Most have 3.08's. Either way you want 3.73's if its a 5spd
