Here's my problem; I put a T350 in my 64 where the 3 on a tree was. My speedometer cable is too short to reach the T350. Any ideas or past experiences with this problem? Thanks ahead of time for any replies. Ray

I measured the old speedo cable with some string. Then went to the FLAPS and bought a longer cable.

It was manufactured by a company called Pioneer, and was available in various lengths. You may have to do a little digging, but you should be able to find the length you need, and it wasn't very expensive.
