No adapter is required. Before you hook the speedo cable to the tranny, bolt the speedo in place, hook the cable to it and make sure it spins free. There is a small drive shaft between the reverser and the Autometer speedo that had to be "adjusted" with a grinder on mine to keep it from binding. If it binds you get to buy another cable.

Default You need a reverse gear

You will need a reverse gear for your autometer reverse speedometer if you don't have one.

My Autometer speedo on my Unique had a right-angle reverser as part of the package. Again, try it before you drive it. When you tighten the reverser down it can bind against the speedo. It only takes a minute to try it but a week to get a new cable for your T600.
