digital speedo inaccurate

So the digital speedo in my gta is about 5-7 miles an hour off the car has the factory 9 bolt rear in it and the 700r-4 transmission. Was wondering what would cause this and how to go about repairing the only thing I can think of is the tranny was maybe swapped out of a 305 car and the plastic gears that the speed sensor runs off are the wrong gears?
