How do I tell if I have a 3.27 or 2.77 rear end?

I have thought this whole time I had the 3.27 rear end, because of it being an 87 IROC. I read somewhere that all 87 5.7 IROCS had the 3.27 rear end. Am I wrong, if I am how can I tell what I have? my RPO codes are gone, so I can't check them .

87'IROC-Z 350 TPI
Ported Plenum,Hypertech Air Foil,Ram Air kit,SLP headers,AFPR,80series flowmaster and MAF screens removed.
14.61@94mph(90+ degree weather)

Car: 1989 IROC--1989 T/A
Engine: 5.7 TPI in both
Transmission: W/C T-5 in both
Axle/Gears: B/W 3.27 in both
on another site there is a table that confirm all 1987 IROCS W/ L98 5.7, auto, came with 3.27

'89 SHAGGY IROC
L98 7r4, all free stuff,T.E.S.,HOOKER CAT BACK,KYB,ACCEL8.8,JET fan sw. etc.

Have you looked on the left side of the inspection cover. Every 9-bolt I've seen has a tag on the lower left side cover bolt that states the ratio. Usually have to scrape off the crud.
