Switching from non WC to WCT5

Really only concern I have is the speedo. I currently have a Mechanical speedo, can the WCT5 still use that, or do I need to switch to an Electrical Speedo?

Any other differences I need to be aware of?

Thanks

No differences...

The electronic VSS (if your particular "WC" trans has that) comes out, the speedo gear housing goes back in the same hole.

Every external detail of them is identical; the mount, shifter, bolts, torque arm, everything. I'm using a 91 trans and a 84 bell housing i n my 83 car right now.
