Car: '90 Trans Am-12.45@110.71
Engine: 355 w/AFR 195's Elem. 400/430 HP/TQ
Transmission: Tremec T-56
Axle/Gears: 12 Bolt 3.73
3.27 is a 9-bolt ratio, and 3.42 is a 10-bolt ratio, which are you looking for?

Yes, V6's would have 3.23 or 3.42 rear gears. You can also try other GM 10-bolts like S10 pickups and Vans.

For 9-bolt stuff it'll be really rare to find in a junkyard.

Let me get this straight, you are going to get junkyard gears & spend 3-4 hours setting them up in your housing or worse yet paying someone else to do it & then to find the gears are no good and have to rip them out & start over again to save what $100-150 ? Dosen't make sense.
