You'll have to get it from the dealer. It's called "speedo gear housing".

The one that is in there now is called a Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS). It is used for Camaro's from 90-92 and Frebirds from 88 (I think). They had an electrically operated speedo vs. your mechanically operated one. The dealer should have it along with the gears and any sleeves you need for your combination. Just let him know what the rear end gear ratio is and tire size you are running.
