It can be made to work no problem.

Personnaly I like the VDO stuff. They have an electronic that is sweet. You romove the speedo cable completly and a VSS screws into the drive. THen wire up the speedo. THen drive down the road and pass a mile marker and hit a button. When you pass the next hit a button again and "TADA" it's calibrated.

Really slick but in the $140 range. Tried to find you a picture on Jegs and Summit but no luck. Here is the page off the VDO site.
