UPDATE!

Ok, I FINALLY found the VSS. It was hidden under the rear motor mount. I had to jack the car up and get under there to find it. It's positioned correctly, but I had a hard time getting it out due to the motor mount. I needed another jack and a block of wood to raise the engine/trans to get the clearance to remove it. I now have the correct part on order so in about a week I should have pictures and an update on how it worked.
blade666: that's how I determined it was the wrong thing to begin with. I went as far as seeing if my speedometer was damaged and spent a day last week ripping the dash apart.

I can say I am getting quite the crash course on MX-6 mechanics with this thing.
My next project is probably going to be the right side transaxle. It makes an uneasy click and grind when gas is applied in a left turn.
