Put a VSS in the transmission instead of the cable housing.

If the transmission you have now is a T5 and you're using the stock speedo, then yes.

yes, the trans im putting in know is a t5, just an older one with cable drive for speedo. my old trans had the vss, so that should work in the older style trans? my next question is, later on i plan putting a big block and a turbo 400 in, what will i do for the speedo then? thanks alot
