Re: Which gear ratio?
What year is the car, what have you done to it, and what transmission does it have? Also, what are your intentions with the car? Is it a daily driver?

Re: Which gear ratio?

Re: Which gear ratio?
Warlock92, you need to change your speedo driven gear on the end of your speedo cable where it meets the transmission. You will have to see if an aftermarket company offers a replacement gear for your gear ratio. According to some literature I have, Saleen Performance Parts offers a 23 tooth gear for a 93 cobra with 3.55 gears, but not sure if they make one for your 3.73's. Worst case scenario you may have to change your speedo drive gear by partially dis-assembling the transmission. Hopefully there is a driven gear available for your set up.

Installation is easy, one bolts and a couple lock pins later your done. Good luck.
