Viper, did the 5.0 have the stock gears or the 3.73s?

I test drove one with the 3.73s and the speed was indeed deceiving. It's alot quieter than my car is (mine is not stock btw), and it had less of a 'kick in the butt' feel than mine has, but a look down at the speedo proved to me that it did get up and go.

I've only driven one 6-speed before in my life and these 5.0s have a short throw shifters, so I can't compare the shifting to mine fairly. I did notice the unusual placement for Reverse though.
