VSS for 92ECM and mechanical Speedo

I tried this on the tranny board with no response...

Other than JTR (Jags that Run), who makes a VSS that has both the hook up for the mechanical speedo and the vss hook up for a 92 ECM.
I have one in the car right now but it died. Unfortunately I cannot find the receipt for where I purchased it from.
Thanks.
89RSZZ4TPI convertible with 92 ECM. and 92 700R4 tranny.

Painless wiring.

I believe both jegs and summit carry them.

Painless sells the JTR unit. I emailed Dakota and they seemed a little confused. Perhaps I'll call them again and maybe get a differnt person on the phone.

I don't like how the JTR unit,sold by Painless thru Summit and Jegs fits under the car. Not much room to route the speedo cable around the from subframe.

Here's what I did for my VSS

and mechanical speedo. I'm using a 730 ECM.

I bought the summit VSS PRF-60116.

From Mid America Motorworks I bought the
Tach Cable Adapter 609465...it's only ~15 bucks. Here's a link.

You can use the tach cable adapter to move the VSS away from the tailshaft area.

The speedo cable goes to one side of the VSS, and th other side of the VSS goes to this cable adapter; the cable adapter then hooks up into the tranny tailshaft.

See what you think.

Thanks, that would allow me some added flexibility under the car,
and use the readily available JTR adapter.
