question about speedo gears
I recently bought all the stuff I need to install 3.73 gears as well as to put posi into my rear end, I know with this upgrade to my stock 91 rs it will throw off the speedo and i know that this can be fixed by replacing to speedo gears in the tail end of my transmission what i dont know is what gears are needed to make my speedo accurate again , I belive that i was told that i will need the 15 tooth driving gear, but I dont know if this is correct or what type of other gears i need. I know that the tire size factors into the what speedo gears are needed and I have 225/55R17 tires and wheels what gear would be used for them. I have read some stuff posted about a forumla that I can use to caculate it but it is confussing to me any info would help me out alot
Thanks

You could/ve just PMed me, but to be safe, use a 41 tooth driven gear, the part number for your local GM stealership can be found in my other sticky.
