I have a 2000 camaro auto w/ out the Y87 package and I am GUESSING I have 3.08's because my car is auto. But I want to put 3.42's for better acceleration and stuff. What are all the parts I need to buy to do this swap? Thanx

Re: 3.42's
yeah I Got 3.42's. Well that's weird because When I plugged in my hypertech programmer it asked me If i put any gears in and 3.42 was on the list. Shouldn't the programmer have picked up on that ??Last edited by Jaysan; 07-10-2007, 12:07 AM.Comment

Re: 3.42's
No, a programmer has no way of telling what gears you've got. That's why it asked you. :DOriginally posted by Jaysan1998 M5 3.8 Mystic Teal Camaro<br />Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3\" cat, 3\" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.

Re: 3.42's
It seems that i have factory 3.42's and i am guessing that they are already calibrated to it.Comment

Re: 3.42's
If your car came with 3.42s then the speedo IS already calibrated for them.1998 M5 3.8 Mystic Teal Camaro<br />Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3\" cat, 3\" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.

Re: 3.42's
Not if he told the programmer that he had 3.08's when he programmed it last. He will have to rerun the programmer and tell it the propper gear ratio... at least I would think he would.2001 Arctic White Firebird With Black Drop Top<br /><br />3:42 Gears<br />Zexel LSD<br />BMR upper A-Arms<br />Trans Am exhaust with 3\" I-pipe and cutout<br />Modified intake<br />Mecham Hood<br />Trans Go shift kit<br />Making rear control arms and panhardComment

Re: 3.42's
If you've never done gears I would have someone else install them or buy a whole rear end from a junk yard. Carvers over in Indianna has them for 250. I called WednesdayOriginally posted by kala
