I have a friend who had the same problem. If I remember his speedo was 3" and had about a half inch gap. He had a machine shop make him a ring/ bracket to fit over the speedo and fit into the dash hole. I think it cost him about $70 to have made. He painted it and it looks sharp. I don't know if anyone makes one. Mid fifties would be the one to ask on that.
