1963 muncie speedo gear question
I have a spare 4 speed sitting in my garage that does not have a plastic driven gear or fitting in the side of the transmission. It is a 63 muncie that I bought that way a while ago.
Short of pulling the tailshaft off and checking the speedometer drive gear, any suggestion as to what color gear I should buy just as a good starting point? For what they cost I just want one in there to keep debris from getting inside. Thanks in advance.

I was hoping it would be as simple as finding the most common 63 driven gear and starting there but I guess I need to know what diameter the drive gear is first
