wish i could help you out dude, all I know is that Autometer told me to splice into the VSS wire before it gets to the PCM, they claim that this will make their speedo work fine

The VSS to DRAC input wires are typically Lt. Green w/Black stripe into position 7, and Purple w/White stripe into position 12 of the DRAC.

If you're looking for the DRAC itself, it varies by vehicle, but on Astros I think it's up under the instrument panel area on the right side of the steering column. It's a thin white plastic box and should have a 3 letter broadcast code label on it.
