Default ? using magnertic pick-up for tach/speedo

Project is LS1 from '02 Camaro into 67 Corvette with 4L60e tranny. Had custom harness made along with ECM from company that has not returned any calls re: tech problems.
Have worked out just about all issues but have been unable to get tach/speedo to work [using VDO analog gauges]. Where can I obtain set-up to use magnetic sensors in flywheel for the tach and brake rotor for the speedo and therfore bypass the ECM? Thanks for any help.

That sounds like a very expensive project. It would be cheaper and easier to just switch to Autometer gauges. They work off the pcm.

I have VDO's (Vision series) working off of the PCM, so there is something else in play. The speedo has to be programmed to see 4k pulse/mi and the tach needs a pull-up circuit.

Good luck.
