In my 49 Pickup I changed my gears from 4.11 to 3.55 and I understand there is a adapter that I can put in the speedometer cable at the transmission to indicate the correct speed. Where can I buy one and how easy is it to install?

I ordered my adapter from Jim Carter's...oldchevytrucks.com. Give them some info from road testing your truck (explained on their website) and they will make one specifically for your set-up.
