As Derf said you want one that has 10/39 on the top of the differential case but check yours first to see which you have now! There were at least 3 available. Early cars were 4.22 to 1, then there is 3.9 to 1 and the shorter 4.22 to 1. The 4.22 is great for autocross - the taller geared 3.77 for highway use. As was noted, the taller gears are getting hard to find and usually demand a suitable hunk of cash.</div><div><br></div><div>If you find a 3.9 or 3.77 that's inside a rear axle case and the seller won't part it out, buy the whole thing.
