i had the speedo gear out of my t5 and i put it in the housing of the tremec 3550 but the speedo is off for some reason? could it be because the gearing in the tranny is different than a t5? the t5 has like 2.95 1st gear and the tremec has like 3.27 1st and so on?

you'll need to play around with different gears on the end until you get the closest average
