this is the jist of what i put to gether when i did my swap so i could compare RPM's at 60mph and also to see what the % change was from stock. i went witht the 3.54. It meant my engine would be spinnging 23% faster than stock. I thought about going 3.73 but didn't want my engine spinning that fast all the time.

Yeah, good luck with that. The eBay ones almost always go for $700+.
