I am working on 6bt nv4500 swap into a 63. I was wondering if anyone knew what I would need to make the electronic speedo drive mechanical so I can us the factory speedo.

Re: Nv4500 question
pretty sure dakota digital has some conversion boxes to change an electronic signal to cable driven.

Re: Nv4500 question
No I don't have a build thread started yet. Haven't had much time until now. Dakota gauges is a good site. I think I found what I need from there. Thanks for the help

Re: Nv4500 question
If your NV4500 has an electric VSS sensor in it, remove it. Get a mechanical speedo drive assembly from a 727 trans and it should fit in there. PATC is them used and new with different tooth count to adjust for taller tires and different gear ratios.

Re: Nv4500 question
Do you have to take apart the trans to change it?
