Re: 1984 Z28

Ok, If I'm not mistaken 3:42 were offered for the Auto not 3:73's. But someone could have easily swapped in a set of 3:73's since 1984 till you bought the car. And also how do you know it's 3:73's, did the person you bought it from tell you that.

The tech notes aren't particularly known for their accuracy.
