Does anyone know the original rear ratio on the Frua? Is it 3.07 : 1  [?]

Clueless mechanically but hopefully you might find what you're looking for in one of these original road tests ?

I`m sure EmmanuelD discussed changing the ratios when he was installing a new motor and/or changing to/from auto trans, but having had a quick search I can`t find it...

2.88 automatic and 3.07 manual box. I made the mistake of using a Hurst shifter with the Top Loader against the advice of my mechanic and I don't like the shifting. Gears are too close to each other and I miss too many shifts also 1/2 the time it won't go in reverse. Also since the diff needs servicing, I will go to 3.07. We will see. [:)]
