Which speedo gear Reply #18 – August 19, 2007, 07:59:44 PM yeah because my cougar that is going to have those gears in it is going to be my daily driver. so a speedo is needed around city streets. then my other car when i get it is a 85 turbocoupe to be a beast on the street/track just like my cougar. so is there a speedo gear for my cougar setup?

Which speedo gear Reply #19 – August 19, 2007, 08:58:40 PM There is no gear that will even be remotely close for 5.13 cogs... In the old days they had adapters(a small gear box) that mounted into the transmission and the cable(with gear) went into the adapter... By juggling gears in each you could come up with about any combo imaginable...That much gear on a C5 is going to get real old in a BIG hurry... Be like driving in second gear... Quote Selected
