Default Drive Gear Ratio

I have a Bravo 3 upper with a 2.00 ratio, I want to install a lower unit from a bravo one X with a 1.5 ratio. What will be the gear ratio with the B3 upper and the B1 lower?

Yes that combo will work. Count teeth in top needs to be 32. Pull top cap off.

I was told with the 2.00 B3 upper, and the stock Bravo lower from a 1.5 drive, the drive ratio would be 1.5 on my new combo. Is that correct?
