Exclamation HELP Speedo turns on and off VSS already replaced!!!! What next??

So I ran into a GT500 and REALLY wanted to run. So, we get after it on some long stretch of road here in Texas and out of nowhere, I hit some RR tracks and bottom out NASTY. The speedo falls all the way to 0. Later on, I started grinding into 5th (this was all before my rebuild) and when it ground the speedo went back up. Every once in a while it will fall all the way down out of nowhere and sometimes grinding 5th helped. I replaced the VSS but im still getting a code for it. What could it be?

take the VSS back out and make sure the reluctor wheel isnt broken on the tailshaft. Also check to make sure the wiring didn't scrape.
