as far as i know the answer is no too but if you can find a cable driven speedo you can send it to fbodymotorsports and they can recalibrate it and reface it to 160mph. i hope that this helps.

He was asking it there was one for the Firebird's not Camaros. He would have to have custom made like white85transam said.

You don't need the computer for the speedo to work.

you have the speed sensor in the trans, it has 2 wires, yellow and purple.

they go under the passenger dash into a yellow box that is/was attached to the side of the computer, from there a green/black striped wire goes to the speedo and there is a pink/black accessory power wire going into the box and a ground. With all that hooked up you are golden.
