Try this site. There is a calculator near bottom of the page. The
Motorsports catalog indicates that for a T-5 you need a 21 tooth gear with
3.73 gears. You need to go through the calculation to get the right gear
set.
The 15R is the original gear for the Tiger.

Subject: [Tigers] Speedometer gear
Tigers,
I have a T5 tranny in my Mark 1A with 3.73 gears and 15" wheels. From what I
understand, the only way to identify which tranny it is is by the
identification tag on the tailshaft (unfortunately, there isn't one). The
numbers on the casing don't mean a thing!
Yesterday I removed the speedo gear from the tranny. Its marked "15R" and on
the opposite side, there is a "4". When I'm driving about 40 the speedo
indicates about 80. Does anyone know who I can talk to to get the correct
speedometer gear?
Thanks in advance.
Tym McDowell
