TTA VSS Sensor?

[BuickMike]

Is it still possible to get a replacement VSS sensor? I see older threads referencing GP Sorensen #7799505, but it seems that does not exist anymore. I'd even go for a working used one. This is for a cluster conversion project so I can feed the correct signal to a TBI F body dual output magnetic VSS buffer.

Thanks!

I got a speed sensor from "jags that run" and it has been working fine for over a year now

I am not 100% sure on this, but I think you could use a VSS from a 1990 Cadillac Brougham with 5.0 (Olds 307) engine. Those had a 200-4r AND a digital gauge cluster. The 5.7 (Chevy 350) Brougham had a 700-r4, so I don't know if that would use the same VSS.

The 700-R4 won't fit unfortunately. I'll look at the part # for the Caddy. Thanks!

Here is what the caddy calls for. Will this work? Looks like even if I have to fabricate something off the cable it will work.

So that one is not even close. Next try is this one:

This was an alternate for the Caddy, but the standard on the 1990 Skylark with 2.5, along with a pile of other '90-91 J bodies. Stay tuned folks.

This sensor did the trick!! Under $100 and has the same plug that will work in the TTA if you guys ever need one.

Thanks for the info!

Good to know!

Only thing on mine is that even though it looked all the same for length, the o ring popped in place a little deeper, so I notched the sensor a little further out (the plastic part) for the piece that holds it in place and it works perfect like that. Just did a 250 mile roadtrip.
