What vehicle is it installed in? The mechanical speedometer requires a cable going to it. The easiest solution would be to run a electric version of the speedometer and tap off one of the speed sensor wires. One wire will be the high and the other the low signal. Then just calibrate the speedometer by driving the 2 mile distance as outlined in the calibration procedure.

Getting a cable to work with an S-chassis will be much harder. If it will work, Speedometer Services out of Milwaukee will know the solution. Their number is (414)463-6660 (I do not work for them or are affiliated with them)
