The HOUSING that holds the speedometer gear is the same on all 66 to early 70's transmissions manual and automatic. Earlier years used different housings and later models and trucks did as well.

I tried that speedo and never got it to work, needle jumped all over
Great. Mine looks like that. Other than putting it into the transmission, how will I know if it will work or not ?
Thanks

fishy,
I follow. Ok..count the teeth and and look for the part on the 727 housing to sync with the number of teeth.
Do I worry about shaft length. Need to pull trans out of storage.
Thank you

The needle jumping all over is a probably a separate issue unrelated to speedo gear alignment. In my experience if the gear is not aligned it just won't work. A bad cable or a speedometer going out will cause the needle to jump around. I just replaced the gauge cluster in my 72 Valiant because of that. The replacement worked great
Fishy,
I am taking the word of Auto Meter. I told them what I have and they gave me the model number. I am far enough into the build to have ordered this unit yet but I am hoping it is going to be soon. I will post how it goes.
