Default Speedometer convertion kit

Hi,
I have a defender 110 with Detroit 6.2L V8 diesel and Chevy 350 Turbo auto transmission. How do I connect Landi Speedo to Chevy gearbox. I'm also thinking if connecting Tachometer.

Thanx,
Gerhard

The speedometer did drive off the transfer box in the original set up. Do you still have that transfer box in the drive train? And you could use a dash stalk pod mounted GPS (speed over ground).

Could do tach via alternator - see

How about some pix of your truck and where are you?

Vdo makes an inductive pickup for the alternator on their diesel tach. And the vdo gauges will fit in the bezel perfectly.
