There are companies out there that make a tail housing for the 400 with the VSS in it, I think Rossler is one of them. You can also tap into the wheel speed sensors to get a reading but you lose the ABS, PM sux2bu about that.

You'll need the pickup and reluctor ring from a 454SS to make it work. Not sure about the LS1s, but that's all you need for the LTx cars. I don't have the GM part #s though. 
I just switched to a mechanical speedo and ran a cable to the old pickup.

Can you do this with LT1 cars also?

i got a new tailshaft and reluctor wheel from a tranny company in texas. Slide the wheel on the output shaft, put the tailhousing on, plug in stock sensor. Have a speedo that works like stock.
