There is a 3.73:1 'thin gear' available for use in GM 12 bolt series 4 
carriers.  I have the thin gear 3.73 in both my 12 bolt posi rears using the 
series 4 carriers  This is the lowest numeric ratio that can be used with the 
GM 12 bolt series 4 carrier.  If your desired ratio is lower than 3.73, 
you'll have to switch carriers.  With a reasonably sized tire, (27" diameter 
with the 255's), plenty of torque with the 383 (450 ft/lbs), and an overdrive 
transmission, the 3.73's are awesome gear ratio.

My combos are:

66 Malibu:
383 SBC, built 200-4R, 3.73 posi, 255-60R15 

66 SS:
383 SBC, Muncie M-20, 3.73 posi, 275-60R15
