As the title states, I need a VSS with gear.

If the speedo reads high, do I need a VSS gear with more teeth or fewer teeth?

More teeth. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Still looking.  These must be as rare as hens' teeth.

Probably any car with a 125 transmission would have the necessary gear.  Do you know what the teeth count is on your present gear?  Check Paul's interchange parts list.

Actually, yes I checked the list, and no, not any 125 transmission.  I have not counted the teeth, but have a blue gear.

I just looked at the list and there's a whole bunch of 125 Automatics listed that will fit the Fiero.  All the way up to the mid 90's.

They must be a 3.33 ratio.  Also, the gears apparently like to break on removal, so I want it with the VSS, which is apparently not the same.  I tried some other VSSs, and they did not work.

Well, these are not fun to locate.  I've gone through whole buckets of gears.  I'm about VSS'd out.
