Blast from the past but for future reference this configuration/calibration was spot on for the T56 swap in my 88 GTA.

Re: helpfull-SGI-5 calibration

All my switch positions are set to OFF with my '89 Firebird. Seems there is no consistent answer to that SGI-5 thing. I saw that when I was trying to figure out what to do.

My speedometer is run by OUT4, which is the 4000 pulse per mile square-wave signal that the speedometer requires. Took me all of 2 minutes to calibrate with GPS and somebody in the driver seat pushing buttons.

By the way, the OUT3 that you used is a 8000 pulse per mile AC wave.
