I recently did a manual swap in my 2000 mustang and now the speed is way off, so much so that I thinks I'm going 120 in second gear causing it to cut fuel. Does anyone know of ways I can fix this?

Is the transmission also from a 2000?

The number of teeth on the OSS reluctor ring is different between the model years. This can be handled the same way as a rear end gear change.

To find the correction factor set the cruise control at 60 MPH on the expressway. Time the number of seconds between the mile posts.
