Default 98 civic LX auto transmission swap?

I bought a 98 civic LX auto trans, trans works perfect... but the speedo is off by 5mph, theres a CEL for the trans and it revs 3600 rpms at 80mph on gps , I know its been changed but im looking to see what is available for tallest final drive.

You have to use a DX/LX trans, an EX trans will throw a P0715 code due to a different 3rd gear ratio.
