Default speedometer gear

I have a 59 Edsel 361 engine and 2 speed Mile-O-Matic auto tranny. I'm in need of a new nylon gear. Dumb question but all the web sites call for a 18 tooth gear but the one in the car that I have is 19 tooth. Go with the 19?

thanks

If you think the speedo was correct, then go with the 19 tooth.

i would count the teeth again, maybe the "19" is a mold stamp of some sort. The reason i ask is i've looked around and not finding a 19 tooth anywhere for Edsel

ok Eckler's =], help me find the heater temp and fan knobs for the same car. I bought a set for a 60 Falcon thinking they would fit and they are too small. Your sight doesn't list one for the Edsel. I think mine should use a set screw in the bottom and they are cream.

thanks again
