Speedo Gear
I went from the stock 2:59's to the stock 3:07. When I change my Speedo sensor and gear do I have to do the driven gear on the tail shaft also ?

Re: Speedo Gear (keekster)
I read in your profile that you car is an 89, for 93 and previous you must change out the gear on the tail shaft, only the 94-96 can be done with the programmer. I got me gears from Doug Rippie. They were a pain to get on because the new gear for the tail shaft is metal(original is plastic and just slides on).
I have a 6spd but I believe it is the same deal for the auto,, good luck

Check out the "New Gears" thread. In it is a link to a pictorial of the speedo gear swap. It looked pretty easy.

Re: Speedo Gear (keekster)
You will need
A new VSS (gm #25007308) and a driven gear (gm #25513049)
Fortunately you do not need to swap the drive gear, which require the remove tail housing of the tranny.
