Are you still runing Factory size(Diameter) tires? If so what is the Diameter?
What was the Factory Rear Gear Ratio in your rearend?
This will help determine what Drive Gear & Driven Gear you have in your speedo.
From there you can use the Calculation in the Tech Articles.

Do a search on jmd, a member on the site. He hooked me up with the correct sleeve and speedo gears (drive and driven) for 3.73s.
