Now my speedometer is off by around 10 mph slower than given speed. I know I need to update adapt new speedo gear. any suggestions?

Have a 3 speed manual trans behind a 250 straight 6.
I talked to my local family owned trans shop, been around 60 plus yrs, pulled plastic gear and took to them, they swapped me with a 2 tooth less, I believe. Have not drove truck yet, but I was reading 60-62 going 50mph. They said it should be close. Everything on the web was way off on saying what I needed...you can gear kits on Ebay, but you need to know what gears you have. it only takes 1-2 teeth for your application
