Electrical to Mechanical Speedo swap???

I just swapped a t56 into my 1992 fox and think I am going to buy an autometer speedometer that uses a GPS signal. I am running a standalone computer and no longer have the factory gauge cluster though...

Also, here is an option if you want to retain your stock speedometer:

That is the only option to keep the stock speedometer in a fox with a non VSS trans. In 1999, everything went to OSS, 98 was the last year for VSS. Now, you can always install a Magnum or find an older aftermarket Mustang T-56 with a VSS provision.

Honestly, if I needed a stronger trans for a fox or 94/95 car I would get an Astro A5 and never look back. The prices you are seeing for the Cobra T-56s are probably in the $1500 range but you have to also factor in all the stuff to swap it into a fox, plus the cost of that $250 box to keep your stock speedo. Or a similar cost to put a good aftermarket speedo in.

oh wow, thanx alot guys! This is very helpful! Im going to do a lil research on this box and this may be the route i go!
