I'm guessing you went to Hendrick Dodge... even telling them how many teeth
you need on the speedo gear confuses them, it's almost as bad as going to
unadvanced auto.. there is a conversion table on the DML homepage. let me
know how many teeth you need, as I have several extras laying around that I
don't need. BTW, if you do have to get one from Hendrick, expect a 1 week
wait, that's been the norm. for each of my 3 gears
