Speedometer not accurate

On my truck build(65 C10), I replaced the 2 speed powerglide transmission with a TH400 and, the speedometer is way off. What do I need to make it accurate or, can it even be modified to work with the TH400?

Re: Speedometer not accurate

What get changed is in the trans. They all have gear sets in them that are used to calibrate the speedometer. Here is a link to one of the online calculators to help get you working.
