Looks like your new trans has a different number of teeth on the speedometer drive gear, that is why your speedo is off. Look at the following chart to determine what you had before vs. what you have now.

You're welcome Gambit.

If in doubt, you can always call the good folks at D & D. They have always been very helpful to me.

Regards,

Rick
