Thanks for the link.
If you look at the T5 7 tooth gear listing says they are out of stock. I've been talking to Trudy there and she's looking for some for me. I buy all my speedometer parts from them for my T56 conversions. The gears have been discontinued from GM.

Re: Wanted 7 tooth T5 speedometer drive gears
Don't know if you're still looking, but I have a NIP 7-tooth sitting on the shelf near me here... Package has been opened but the gear is unused because I already had it (dealer just couldn't get me the DRIVEN gear I needed!). It's P/N 14071731, purple.

Re: Wanted 7 tooth T5 speedometer drive gears
I know this is an older thread but I'm in need of one as well for my IROC-Z Convt. I'm currently trying to make a mold for a 7 tooth T5 using a 9 tooth T5 and a 7 tooth TH350 Wish me luck.

Re: Wanted 7 tooth T5 speedometer drive gears
Well it may be an older thread but I still need the gears. If you do successfully make them let me know.
In working on a solution myself and if it works out I'll have some 7 tooth gears available. I do have a few 9 tooth ones I would part with if someone needs them.

Re: Wanted 7 tooth T5 speedometer drive gears
This is where I'm at now
I did get some negatives molded. I will be taking them to an uncle of mine who works in the plastics industry. I'm probably looking at almost 3 grand in startup costs just to make reproduction gears.

Re: Wanted 7 tooth T5 speedometer drive gears
What is your target price per gear if you are able to go into production of them?

Re: Wanted 7 tooth T5 speedometer drive gears
It really depends on the demand. Used 9 tooth gears sell for $30, so 40 to 50 bucks for new 7 tooth gears doesn't seem too unreasonable. I don't spend my free time working for free
