Whether you have a 9 bolt or a 10 bolt rear.

Re: borg warner or not???

They did put the 9 bolt in a few of the 90 car until they used up the remaining stock. If you have a 9 bolt then you gear selection is basically limited to stock gear or 3.70. It's very difficult to locate anything higher than a 3.70.

my '90 IROC with L98 5.7L has the 9-bolt Borg-Warner rear-end with disc brakes. the tag on the 9-bolt diff cover indicates 3.27 gears.

ring gear size is 7.75"

I think they were used in 1991 also.
