Now you're asking Alan! I've been asleep since then!

If memory serves, the answer was to either swap the extensions housings or to open up the blanked hole in the 71 housing for the speedo drive gear and transfer it from your 55 to 71.

It's a relatively minor detail and not insurmountable so maybe the suck it and see principle will work well.
