Maybe doing the math when you are comparing a wide with a 3.55 and a close with a 4.10 but your statement is totally wrong when comparing transmission to transmission.

"Wide" on the early GTOs was 2.56 and "Close" (on a very very few GTOs) was a 2.20 first gear ratio.

The gear ratios were NOT the same. "first through third are the same" WRONG!
