Magic919 posted my previous posted table in this thread:

www.hsv.org.uk/topic.asp?t=775185&f=69&h=27

VXR8 is approx 1840Kg and has M10 ratio set and 3.7 diff. M10 is same as M12 accept 1st which is 3.01.

I believe LS3 equiped VXR8s used the later TR6060 version of the T56. I think has wider gears but else is the same.
