new speedo gears

What info do I need to get my speedo working properly? The thing reads way to fast. It says I’m going 100 on the freeway. I know I drive fast, but not that fast. Tire size? Diff ratio? Tranny is a th350.

Did you change the size of your wheels / tires? Did you change the diff ratio? Those 2 things would cause the speedo to be whack.
