Need help ID'ing rearend gears

[coldair85GN]

Rearend came out of an 87 Turbo T. I am the one who removed the rearend from the car and I drove the car...I have no reason to believe its anything other than a factory rearend. The rear is an 8.5. I need to ID the gears in it because some guy that was going to buy it is telling me it has a non-posi 2.73? gear in it. Any way to ID these parts? The gears are GM factory gears. I dont debate it being a non-posi..just the ratio he told me. It looks to have an 8.5" ring gear in it.

number of teeth on ring gear divided by the number of teeth on pinion 41/12= 3.42

You can count the teeth on the ring and pinion gears.

3.42 = 41 ring and 12 pinion

2.73 = 41 ring and 15 pinion
