Not sure if this is the correct section.
Is there a conversion that would allow a cable drive Sport Comp speedo from a Ford, to work with a Mopar 727 box?
One for sale at good price but not sure if i can use it.

Not sure to be honest but personally I would stick with the Chrysler stuff, the other cable may look like it fits, but if it doesn't you've wasted your money of course.
Save your pennies and buy a proper one

Ok cheers for the advice.
Not so worried about the cable as the drive ratio.
Could get cable made up.

If you can sort the cable to fit, it will work fine. The speedo won't care what you bolt it to, it will work just the same on anything.

And you adjust the accuracy with the plastic gear at the transmission end. They come in different tooth counts.
