Get the rear jacked up with both rear tires off the ground, then rotate the tires one full turn, while at the same time looking at the pinion yoke/driveshaft, counting its rotation. I am assuming your Viper is one of the uber rare rear wheel drive models?
If you have 3:55.1 gears, the yoke will turn a 'scosh' more than 3 1/2 times, to every one full rotation of the tires. Ignore the front tires, as they should not be turning.
Now, if you have stock gearing, 3.07, the yoke will rotate a 'scosh' more then 3 times to every one rotation of the tire.
Sarcasm aside, this method has been used to the success and astonsishment of many math majors.
Enjoy!
