i have a 1955 1st series with a stock speedometer in the dash. I converted the tranny to a 1985 T5 from a S10. No speedometer cable. Will a stock 1955 speedometer work with the T5 tranny. Just installed a new 261 engine and really want the speedometer to work. Thanks.......

The stock one will probably be a little short. Different lengths are available. The hookup is the same. You will have to check the acuracy. Compare the odometer with the mile markers on the freeway. You can juggle the gear in the trans. or get a ratio adapter if it is off.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
