Does anyone know if there is a list somewhere that tells you the size and color of the drive and driven gears for the T5 speedo drive? The T5 I have needs to be calibrated to match stock diameter wheels and a new 3.27 rearend. The driven gear is white and it has 19 teeth. The drive gear is blue and still inside the tranny and I can't get a count on the teeth. Anyone know the tooth count?
Thanks

This is exactly why I ignore colour every time. The majority of 21's I've seen in T5's have been a green colour. The 22's I've seen have been red.Originally posted by KagA152

hmm, the 21 tooth i have is orange, but its 29 years old. im not sure when they discontinued them. all that i have seen have a metal sleeves
Thanks for the info:
Based on that information and the caculator here http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/t5speedo.asp
I will need to use an 18 tooth driven gear to get things working
right. Anyone know what speedo housing I have to use with an
18 tooth driven gear. I understand that changes in the number of driven teeth require one of two different hosings to get
the distance between the gears to work right.
Thanks

That's true for th350-c / th250-c / 700-R4 stuff. I don't believe that's the case for the T5.Originally posted by Ratchet

GM dealer asked me which part number I needed. two listed for T5.

Probably for VSS, or cable drive (Camaro had cable through 89; `Bird through 85.)Originally posted by Ratchet
