The sensor does come out of it, but it is an enclosed cylindrical capsule with a magnet tip that measures the pulses of the rotating sprocket mounted on the tranny shaft. It does not have a gear at all. It is totally non contact. The sprocket will need to be changed with a gear and the speedo cable adapter will have the other gear on it I guess, to make it mechanical.

I'll have to check Autometer for a price on the electronic speedo, maybe it is less than the conversion. I would like my gauges to match though.
