3.43(.42? .45?) for 4.3 + auto
3.07(.10? .08?) for 4.3 + 5spd
In the old days it was 3.42 and 3.08. Nowadays??? Who knows... The site Red linked to a few posts back gives the whole range, I believe...

At the dealership I worked at, the salesmen liked to show their prowess in filling in the little squares that varied from the default on the order blank - after they had asked whether you were looking for mileage or were going to pull a trailer, of course...

I was just one of the mechanics, but once in a while they would use me as a guinea pig, to order in a special hot-rod version of one rig or another. Then they would let me do the pre-delivery on it, so at least I would get to drive the thing!!! Had a Trans Am scare the snot out of me once...
