When I put the T-5 (Ford case/ S10 tail housing) into a Tiger, I used an
electronic speedometer I happened to own. I used the electronic sensor setup
that came on 1990 & later S10s. (Reluctor, sensor and pigtail). All were
available after-market from Standard Products.
The Chevy reluctor is larger than the Ford shaft so I made a shim for the
shaft and pressed the reluctor into place. If I were to do it again, I'd
make the shim thinner and secure it with hi-temp JB Weld or something
similar.
