| "ABOUT THIS PROGRAM" |
|
This program is designed to help you (the user) find the appropriate gear to use
so that your speedometer reads correctly. The gear you'll need to buy is called
the 'Driven Gear' and is located on the end of your speedo cable. To find out how
many tooth Driven Gear you need to buy, first you need to know how many teeth
are on the drive gear which is located inside your transmission on the output shaft. |

| The Ford SVO catalog lists these: |
| 6 teeth (Black) - for some 4-cyl T5 transmissions. |
| 7 teeth (Yellow) - for most '83-'89 V8 5.0 Mustang transmissions. |
| 8 teeth - for '90-'95 Mustang GT and 5.0L LX transmissions. |
| To be 100% accurate check yours! |

Ford only has available up to 21 teeth, there are aftermarket companies that sell 21+
tooth gears but at these amounts the teeth are next to paper this and you would be
better off installing a drive gear with less teeth and then re-calculate. |

Note: This formula used for this calculation was
taken from the Ford SVO catalog, according to Brad Anesi
that formula is off by -1. In this version I am adding +1 to the end of
the equasion found in the Ford SVO catalog |
