My gift to me: T-56 swap

This might be a stupid question, but does the factory speedometer sending unit (auto) work on the T56? And does anyone have a picture of the shifter location in the interior of the car?


Supposedly the VSS works fine.

The shifter location is just like a Turbo Coupes. Nothing changes except the shifter can go into a 6th gear. :)

Just got off the phone with D&D and they said try a sensor from a 94-98 Mustang.
I installed the clutch pedal assembly last night along with the steering column. Today I hope to have the engine and transmission in the car and maybe running tommorrow or Sunday.

the harness on the tbird "should" plug right into the sensor on the tranny. if memery serves me well they are the same. why they didnt put the electronic speedo in the stang sooner is a mystery to me...
