This is an electrical, but you can buy a mechanical for rimmerbros i think.

SD1 speedo sensor.
My box is Mustang T5, not sure for your´s
You have to grind carefully original teeth´s away, like i did.´And made a small speicer + O-ring to seal it. I use loctite to fit this speicer.

I use Ford mustang speedo sensor gear, it is not tight fit, or not too loose, but need to drill small hole + split pin..

Bolted together.

And you can use SD1 LT77 speedo sensor locking plate also.. Slightly grind it..

And i think summit racing will sell T5 mechanical speedo sensor also..?

I think SC46 will fit.. It has got both, mechanical and electrical for cruise etc..

Exactly what T5 do you have ? and did it originally use an electric sender or a cable output ?
