It is really steep in the 4-cylinder T5...something like 3.90:1.

Example...My svo gear ratios were.. 1st- 4.03:1 2nd- 2.37 3rd- 1.50 4th 1.00 5th .86 These changed the next year to 1st- 3.50 2nd- 2.14 3rd- 1.36 4th- 1.00 5th- .78 I think turbocoupes were a little different and like you mentioned, most 'standard' 4cyl LX's had the 3.97 1st but I am not sure what years.

If your trans still has the build tag, check out this site - www.allfordmustangs.com/Detailed/349.shtml... It was a help when I put a turbo coupe t-5 in my wife's 2.3
