Re: Volvo J Type OD gear ratio %

I can see where the ID plate used to be on the passenger's side of the J 
type, but the plate is missing. Underneath where the plate used to be it 
says 13 SO 7427 cast into the housing -- not stamped.

I called John Esposito, and he said the J types on a Volvo provide more 
information that did the TR6's, and that the 7427 cast into the housing 
underneath the missing ID plate means that it's from a 74 Volvo and it's 
27%.

John was at Carlisle when I bought the Volvo transmission and OD and he 
said the TR6 J types were 25% and the Volvo's were all 25% or higher. 
There were none lower than 25%.
