Milano speedo error

[JohnLaF@xxxxxxx]

Hello Digesters,
I have been having some work done on my Verde. One of the things done was a 
clutch rebuild and, while they were at it, a rear end re-do. The shop rebuilt a 
4:10 rear from a 2.5 ltr and had it ready when I took the Verde in. So now I 
have to figure out the easiest way to get the speedo to work properly. If I 
understand it, the sending unit (or transducer) is specific to the rear end. Why 
won't the unit from the 2.5 just plug in to the Verde speedo and work? 
Actually, I guess the "why" is nice to know, but the "how do I get around this?" is 
more needed right now. I couldn't find anything on the Wiki or old 75 Resource 
page. I am afraid my only option is to replace the guts of the actual speedo 
itself with one from a 2.5. Is that so? 
Any advice, opinions, thoughts, ponderings or rumors are appreciated. 
TIA,
John L
