But can't find what ratio because 2.73 and 3.23 were both available for that engine.

Although Jim spends most of his time in Charlotte, he and wife Barbara maintain a home in Paradise Valley, Arizona. That's where they keep his collection of vintage Chevys, including a very quick '57 Bel Aire sport coupe, a rare '69 Camaro RS/SS, a '55 Bel Air, a '38 street rod, and a 1993 Indy 500 Camaro pace replica with a factory-installed manual tranny -- the only one in existence.

the pace car was a striking black-over-white exterior with special multi-colored stripes and interior seat covers that featured a very special weaving process. Of those 633 pace car replicas – all featured a 4-speed automatic transmission save for one – which was built with a 6-speed manual transmission for Jim Perkins, who is not only an avid Camaro enthusiast – but served as general manager of Chevrolet Motor Division at the time – and further, drove the Camaro pace car for the race!

http://www.indypacecars.com/1993.html - "The car was basically stock, powered by a 5.7L, 275-horsepower V-8, but Chevrolet fitted the pace car with a Corvette 4-speed automatic transmission, as well as assorted safety features. The '93 pace car was driven by Chevrolet general manager Jim Perkins, who had previously driven the 1990 Beretta."
