yea, check the tag on the rear diff. My 96 came with 3.27, there has also been other gt's that came with 2.73's.

Yeah my 96 came with 3:27's. But that was an option out of the factory. I still have the window sticker, stock is 2:73 w/o the 3:27 posi set up...

yep, I have a 97 GT and it has a 3.27 posi. I don't know how they lived with a standard diff. with 2.73. ONLY advantage there would be highway fuel economy.

I think it was a 200 or 300 dollar option? well worth it


I still have my window sticker too! The guy i bought it from kept it.

Mine has 2.73's, and its so weird how well it runs for a stock 4.6. I keep withing a car length of my friends(until I flip the switch), 3.27 geared 5 speed 99 gt. And it seems like we are close to equal drivers.
