I,m looking for a 19 tooth Powerflite speedometer pinion.
I have a 17 tooth in there now and the speedometer is 10 mph off.
The engine and trans were changed from a different car before I owned it.

.
What you have is a 1559 395 Orange 17 tooth pinion. What you see is a 1559 396 Blue 19 tooth pinion. The "Atlas" (after market) numbers are 817-233 (17 tooth) and 817-232 (19 tooth).

Before changing the pinion, check the odometer reading over a known distance. If the odometer is fairly accurate, the speedo error is in the head, not the pinion.
