Maybe you can be the guinea pig, but I doubt you will be successful as JPC hasn't found a way for the speedo to work in their T-56 Magnum equipped '11 GT. Good luck to you though.
Yes because imbeciles like you are polluting it.

Heck, you're spending all that money on the tranny swap, just get a custom reluctor machined for it with the proper amount of teeth.
I would also think that you should be able to use a speedo recal box since that is what they do is change the number of pulses to match what is needed.

Will my 3.73's work well with my current setup or would I need 410's?
2012 5.0 Tr6060
3.73, SW Long tube, catback x pipe, Brenspeed 93 tune and CAI, Shaftmasters aluminum driveshaft.

I think the answer would be that 4.10s are more attractive with the 6060 due to the steep 6th gear--you can get all the acceleration benefits of the 4.10 without much (if any) mileage impact. I think this is one of the first mods for many F-body guys.
That being said, I'm not sure if it's worth the cash in parts/labor to upgrade from 3.73 to 4.10.

In my bone stock 96 GT with only a Terminator T-56 and 3.73, I can spin the tires in second. I only have like 190 odd hp(max 210) to the tire at that. So you should be fine with 3.73. The Terminator guys love running 3.73 on the street until you start going turbo and then you go back to 3.55's or 3.31/3.27.

OK, the transmission shifts perfectly glad it's all in.
The speedometer isn't working and the revers lights aren't either.
Above I posted a diagram of the TR6060's wiring that I got from DandD performance who did this swap and got the speedo to work.
The guy that did the swap also gave me this website to buy one of these:
http://www.atrol.com/speedometer/
He said I need an ERA. I just don't understand what to do with the wiring.
The RPM's work though.
