i have this rear end on my 67 bird. Can anybody tell where it came from, and maybe what ratio it is?? I can't find a 2 letter code on the drivers side. But on the passenger side right below the cover, the numbers are the following:

F197
9792977

can anybody help? thanks guys

A Pontiac casting number of the right era, and the date code is June 19, 1967. Now you really do need to find the two-letter usage stamp. Look on the other tube, on the top and the bottom. There is no hard rule about where they were marked and they will likely be very light. You may need to sand it.
As far as the ratio, you could jack it up and count the turns or pull the cover and count the teeth. The tooth count is also stamped into the ring gear.
