I recently replaced the plastic speedo housing and speedo driven gear that had 45 teeth in my 84 z28 with a 3.73 ratio. Bowtieoverdrives.com has a calculator based on wheel/tire diameter, drive gear color, and drive ratio to estimate the best driven gear to use. Hope this helps

I used to have 3.73's in mine and the drive gear(smallest and on the output shaft), was the red one( cant remember the # of teeth) and the driven gear was green( dont remember the # of teeth on it either, sorry. But you can go to
this link and scroll down and it will tell you which ones to use and give you the part # as well. hth

You need the gray 15 tooth drive gear and the purple 43 tooth driven gear hope this helps.
