Looking for info on converting my 66 factory speedo (cable driven) to a newer electric unit for my 4l80. I want it to look like the original. I have found info on 68-72 but not on 64-66.Thanks

I don't think the classifieds is really the best place for it....
If you want the vss signal from the 4l80e to work on the mechanical speedo, you'll need something called a cable X

I am trying to get a electrical speedometer and get away from the old bouncy cable drive. But i want it to have the original look.
