speedometer help

[crider]

I am just about finished doing a t56 swap into a 71 firebird. I have the bellhousing adapter, tranny, crossmember, and driveshaft all installed. What I don't have is a way to drive the speedo. I have seen jags that run's conversion to the tail housing but I really don't want to have a big hole cut in the tail and filled in with j-b weld. I have heard that somebody makes a converter box that will drive the speedo cable off of the original speed sensor. Does anybody here know who makes it?

Thanks ALOT that is exactly what I'm looking for. I'll be giving them a call tommorrow. The speedo is the last thing I had to do on this swap. Again thank you.
