Have a look at some other transmissions - you will probably find one with a Mechanical drive that fits straight in - just make sure the gears have the same number of teeth.
For instance a Corolla Auto drive case fits into a Manual IS200 6 Speed.
Good luck

more info on type of conversion being undertaken needed, you may be able to simply remove the electrical unit and replace with a mechanical item.

We put a Nissan RB20DET engine in an old Z, the new gearbox had an electrical sender, but the original L28 gearbox cable drive thing fit straight in.
So yeah, definately ways around it without changing the speedo itself.
