You need a 15 tooth (gray) drive gear and a 43 tooth (purple) driven gear if running stock height (26") tires.

The trans doesn't matter. Tire size and the rear gears are all you need to figure it out.

Yea, rear gears....fixed first post. Both speedo gears are in the trans, one is attached to the speed sensor, the other is on the output shaft of the trans. You have to take off the tailhousing of the trans to change it.

No big deal just a few bolts and some trans fluid spillage.

Here's a link to a speedo gear calculator.
Plus if you know what you need you can go to a GM dealer & buy them.
