TurboII Transmission hooked up to 83 Speedo…??
Anyone know which odometer cable I need to hook up in my 1983 GSL if I’m running an 87 TurboII transmission….?? Thanks.

should be able to use the one in the car, as long as it's long enough to reach.

Your existing cable should work without any issues. I have an s4 turbo trans installed in my 79. I used my original speedo cable with the new trans and it worked just fine.

Thanks for the responses. I can’t find my original speedo cable anywhere. Just wanted to check before picking up a new one. I’ll prob find it as soon as the next one arrives lol.

Like the others said, the fb cable works just fine -been using mine for many years. If you can't find a fb one then a fc one will also work although I believe it is longer so it won't look as neat in the engine bay
