I put the speedometer speed sender on a 58 corvette that I had built. Speedway was the only place that I could find the part. I am now able to drive the car again. It worked out great.

Well, its basically "plug and play". Works as it should. I coupled it with a Auto Meter speedo and had great results. The included wiring diagram was simple to read and the install took less than a few minutes.

I ordered this product to go with an AutoMeter electric speedometer.The directions with this unit dovetailed with the directions that came with the speedometer which made installation a snap.
