Question Horse Power and Gear Ratio's

Can anyone tell me if they know the stock horsepower rating for the I6 300 EFI engine?

Also can someone tell me how to determine the gear ratio I have on my truck? I cant afford the manual, Im broke.

For the gear ratio there is a tag bolted on with the diff cover. The first 3 digits in the bottom row are the ratio, the next 2 should be 88 which means 8.8" ford axle. If it has limited slip there will be a L in place of the decimal point like this 3L55. The first digit is partialy covered by a bolt most of the time. You can also post the axle code from the drivers door jamb decal.

HP is, I believe, about 150, with torque at around 260 lbs/ft.
