Here is a pic of that adapter. I am not 100% sure if this is the correct part because it has "Stewart Warner" stamped into it in cursive letters. However, my car was originally a 3.90 rear and would have used one of these.

[cballweg]

Is this the one that came off your GTO?

[webfoot]

Yep.

[cballweg]

How much do you want for it?I also need the speedometer gear that goes in tranny for a 3:90 rear gear if you still have it.

[cballweg]

This bolted in to your tranny?

[webfoot]

It has the groove in the side for the tab that retains the normal speedo cable, the part I am holding goes on the trans side. The other shaft faces the front of the vehicle. You can have it for $20 shipped, I really have no idea what its worth.

I don't have the gear.

[cballweg]

Do you have a paypal account?If so give me your paypal address so I can pay you.If not how do you want paid and give me info and your address.Does it have a cable that goes into the tranny to turn speedometer gear like the ones I have seen of these do or is it missing?Thanks

[webfoot]

I don't have anything else that is supposed to go with it, sorry. As for how it works, I have no idea as my car was totally disassembled when I got it.

[cballweg]

Ill take it.If you dont want info on here send me a private message so we can determine how you want paid.I still like paypal if you have an account.Its easy and faster but if not youll have to send me your address.thanks

[webfoot]

I did a bit ago via PM.

[cballweg]

Sent address with paypal and PM.Thanks again

I don't know where all this info comes from but you are way off. As a restorer and collector of 69 gto' s for 30 years I've never seen or heard of a 69 having the Speedo cable on the passenger side. I've had ones with ratios of 308-433 and everyone had it on the drivers side. I've never seen a Speedo adapter on a stick car EVER. Automatics only. You do what u want but the correct trans is the one with the Speedo on the drivers side.

I agree with Ram4 king. All 68-69 GTO's had the speedo on the drivers side. I think firebirds and chevy might have them on passenger side, but not 100% sure. Definitely GTO on drivers side. You can look in the 69 assembly manual and it clearly shows drivers side speedo's.

What about the 3 speed Dearborn? Serious question!

[cballweg]

Why would the automatics have the ratio adapter and a 4-speed wouldent?Thanks

I parted out a 68 LeMans with 3 speed Dearborn trans, as I recall the speedo was on the passenger side of the trans but I can't be 100% sure now.

I have one file photo of the drivers side of the transmission, It's not the best picture but I sure don't see a speedo gear mount.

FWIW

I owned a 69 GTO 4 speed with a/c years ago and it had the speedometer ratio adapter, as I recall it had a 3.23 ratio rear differential.

I suppose it is possible it could have been added at sometime over the years but the car did have it's born with drivetrain, motor, transmission and rear differential.

Poncho447,was the speedometer mount on drivers side or passenger side?

The speedo mount was on the drivers side, I have never seen a GTO 4 speed car with a passenger side speedo mount.
