Where to find 3.90 ring & pinion

I have a 1989 Camaro with a 2.73 rear. This is a 2 series rear. I want to put a 3.90 rear in it.

Thanks

It's not a common size for the tiny 7.5" ring and pinion. There are very few performance ratios available.

3.23
3.42
3.73
4.10
4.56 with a special cross pin.

It would be easier to shift your tire size around for the effect your looking for than bothering with 3:90's.

4:10 with a 28" tall tire run around the same RPM as a 3:73 with a 26" tall tire. Find your medium.
