t45 speedo gear, mech or elect??????

[Talyon]

this question is for a 1998 mustang cobra

1998 is mech so to speak.

It's a gear in the tranny that turns an output wheel from the VSS. The VSS sends a signal to the speedo for spead measurment. So it's mech from the tranny...electric to the speedo.

The 99+ is electric from the tranny all the way up.

Hope that answers it....

mechanical. whats why you cant reflash the comp for gear changes. you need either a speedo gear or a speedcal.

Thought it could be done both ways? Speedo gear or flash, but not both? My pred has the opt, but I already changed the gear 7 years ago w/ the 410's I put in.

just how accurate would the speedo gear be with 4.30s?

not very accurate, huh?

Correct

Dunno, but what I do know is I have a Brothers Performance speedcal and mine is dead nuts on. Every time I go by one if those things on the highway where it displays your speed, mine has never been off 1 mph.
