Simplest thing to do is to take it by a speedo shop, if you live in a big town, they have all the parts and pieces needed.
Mine is Electric with a Dakota Digital Hall-effect sensor, I can recalibrate it in about 5 minutes going down the road.
I did mine that way because tires change when moving from 1 size tire to another.
I you have a GPS, you can use it for speedo. Majority of the time, I just look at my tach majority of the time since I know what my motor turns @ certain road speeds....
I saw a chart online somewhere where they showed diff. tire sizes and the diff. gears to adjust your speedo....Good luck.
Yea, Ex Junk, I believe thats the one I saw. They'll have to revise it at a later date...., it only accounts for 7 gears....hahaha....GM and Ford are in cahoots together and are gonna be mfg'ing a 10 speed automatic in the near future. Really small motors, turbo'ed with really narrow powerbands....instead of reving the motor, they're just gonna grab another gear....
I put a speedhut gps speedometer in mine, always correct easy to install. If I remember right 3 1/8 diameter. If you're interested type in gps speedometer and you will find some interesting items
