The number that follows is the Ratio. Useful for determining if you want to go up or down rpm wise on the new Diff.

Here's a picture of my diff tag. Not sure if you can make out all the numbers since it's been painted.

Can't make out the numbers to the left. If you can take Scotchbrite and lightly scuff it to remove the sheen, then shine the flashlight from the right side at an oblique angle to show the relief. Turn off the flash on your camera.

This is the best I could do. I know I don't have a limited slip. On hard launches it appears that only the passenger side tire is the one that spins, leaving one tire mark. Wish I knew which T56 Backdraft put in my car. Unfortunately I can't find any info in the build book.

09 3 46 which should be an open differential with the standard 3:46 gear ratio.

Thanks for clearing that up. I had a feeling that's what I was looking at.
