I am not sure if they just stuck to one ratio for the whole run (doubt it). Look for the Service Parts Identification label, it'* a sticker that is likely in the glovebox or on the spare tire cover. It contains a series of alpha numeric 3 digit codes, known as RPO'*.

Cross reference the codes against this site:
RPO Codes.com- GM option codes,GM rpo codes,General Motors options

One of the codes should indicate the factory equipped final drive ratio

divide the number of teeth on the ring gear by the number of teeth on the pinion and that will give the ratio. Example 41 ring gear teeth divided by 12 pinion gear teeth = 3.41666666666 or a 3.42 to 1 ratio.
