Default speedometer incorrect

I have a 1990 ZR1 vette with a ZF 6 speed manual tranny. rear differential gears have been changed to 4.10 ratio. my speedometer is off and cannot be corrected by using OEM speedo gears. it has electronic speedometer with the sensor that is installed into extension housing. is there a electronic "cheater" module available that I could install that will adjust speedo to correct speed. or does anyone know of any places to get drive and driven speedo sensor gears to correct the speedometer.

A bit expensive, and I can't speak for how well it works, but Ecklers sells one.
