The standard ratio for 11928 was 5.6 (56/10). In 1929 there was a higher gear of 5.1 for the roadsters and coupes, but that was it. It is possible to adapt an earlier 4 cyl unit into the housing, which has a 4.6 (56/12). It may be possible to get new gears machined with other ratios, but this would be very expensive. If you had a 3.5 ratio you would have to live in a very flat part of the country!

It would be intersting to open up a '27 to '29 Essex center section to examine the possibilties for installing those gears.
They will interchange.
All you gotta do is find the one you want.
