I am using the 1UZ in my 4runner and am adapting an R150F with a Dual RF1A Gear Drive transfer case that has a mechanical speedo. My question is, will the following work with the cluster from an LS400. I am using the LS400 Cluster in my 4runner.

I found some info here from clublexus:
"The No.1 speed sensor outputs a 20-pulse signal for every revolution of the rotor shaft, which is rotated by the transmission output shaft via the driven gear. This signal is converted into a 4-pulse waveform by the combination meter, it is then transmitted to the Engine and ECT ECU. The ECU determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of these pulse signals. In the ECT, this sensor is used as a backup sensor in case of malfunction of the No.2 speed sensor........location-right rear of trans (drivers side in your case)

If I'm reading this correctly, they are saying the sensor outputs 20-pulse signal and then the actual gauge cluster in the car converts it to a 4-pulse. After that happens, it goes to the ECU. If that's correct then I wouldn't think that the marlin sensor would work.
