Looking at GMC Manual X7425, page 0-2, for another reason, I came across
information I didn't know was available: The Final Drive ratio is stamped
on the flange near the right (passenger) side case expansion hole (the Big
one) of the FD. There should be a 3 or 4 character code, with the first
letter "T" (3.07:1 ratio), followed by "A"=January thru "K"=December ("I"
not used), and the date of manufacture during that month. EX: TA12 means a
3.07 made on January 12th.
BIG Q for Jim K.: Do Y'All obliterate that code when changing the ratio?
If not, no one should depend on it being accurate.
