Need Electronic to mechanical speedo conversion
Need Electronic to mechanical speedo conversion I was wondering if anyone knows of any companies that have the conversion box that takes a vss signal and runs a mechanical speedometer? Thanks
Its $300. I still need mine but i feel like 300 is to much for this.

My brother was looking for the same thing. the cable X is the only one that I have heard of being used. But I might try this one http://www.dragonaero.com/SpeedChang...anicalPage.htm $130 is a lot better than 300, I just can`t find anyone who has actually used it yet.

Have you considered converting your tach to electrical? I did that on my 68 vette. I found a tach with the same sweep, put it in the housing and used the mechanical faceplate and needle.
I am converting to an electric tach out of a 75 or 76 (do not remember the exact year).
Got my cable x off of ebay through i believe their ebay store it was alot cheaper and great support after i bought it. I got the 30 slot model which they say does not have the problem of a bouncing needle. I mounted mine in the engine compartment on the fenderwell. Do a search on ebay for abbott cable x. I am very happy with mine. It let me keep the factory gauges and that was what i wanted.

Atv I worked with http://www.cmacable.com through the entire process of modifying my ATV. They have A+ customer service and an excellent line of cable and restraints. If you are looking for Mechanical Cables cma is the way to go! 
Reply Do a search on EBay. Tachman 1 has the best prices. That is who I bought mine from. Funny thing though he is in the same town where Abbott Industries is located. I only paid about $250 for mine. Cheaper than If I bought directly from Abbott Industries. I have yet to install it so I cannot comment on any noise. I really haven't heard any problems though. Tachman1 has an auction going right at this moment.
