Default What transmission do I have

How do I tell which transmission I have in my 1998 Corvette? It is an automatic. Were all the transmissions the same? Would it be the 4L60E transmission? Thanks

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think all of the Auto Trannys are the same, the difference was the rear-end gear ratio. There was a standard ratio, and there was also a performance ratio. Now I'm not sure what the exact ratios were, but I'm sure Lee or mech can answer that question.

I dont think they made any performance gear in the auto since the rear ends werent as strong as the M6 cars.
