John,
I sell a Hall effect VSS that fits in the stock cruise sensor hole in '86 and
later speedos. It's intended to satisfy the needs of the Subaru ECU and
it outputs 3 different signals.

1) 0-5 volt square wave pulse at 4 pulses per speedo cable revolution.
2) 0-5 volt square wave pulse at 2 pulses per speedo cable revolution. (for
Syncro)
3) Open collector output (just pulses to ground) Either 2 or 4 pulses per rev.

Comes with mounting screws and instructions.

Follow the link in my sig line...
