In Winnipeg I had a '76 Camaro and after both changing the rear-end and
rear tire size, my speedo was way off. JB Transmission on St. Mary's did
the math for me and provided a bolt-on gearbox for where the speedo
cable came out of the tranny.  I actually broke my speedo (it only went
to 120 mph, the Camaro made it to 186 mph on the perimeter highway. If
you are interested it had a 396 ci with a Holley 1050 double pumper, 2"
headers, and a 4 speed Muncie. VERY scary! I was 18 and immortal!)

ANYWHO JB either did the work or jobbed it out. I sent a lot of business
their way because they gave a discount to students in my highschool shop
class.

They are still there, John's still the owner. Here's the contact info -
sorry I don't have a link for you.
