These guys http://www.gaugeguys.com/index.htm make an adapter from a electronic trans signal to a cable for a mechanical speedo. It's kind of pricey, a electronic speedo is way less. _________________ 1979 El Camino\r\n1955 Chevrolet Del Ray\r\n1962 Corvette\r\n1966 Corvette Coupe
They also sell a manual to help you with your conversion. Why re-invent the wheel? _________________ Ernie

You can also get Autometer electronic gages and probably others. They're easier to calibrate. _________________ Home Site: http://www.elcaminoplace.com
