explain what you mean by setting,

the number of teeth on the gear will depend on the gear ratio in the rear end and tire size,
1 tooth up or down will change the speedometer by about 2mph,so if you know how fast or slow your speedometer is to be correct you,ll add or subtract 1 tooth for every 2mph its off,you,ll need to know how many teeth are on the gear you have now,the number is usaully on the plastic gear

not sure if thats what you are asking

Go to www.ring-pinion.com Randys Ring and Pinion, he has some calculators that you can use to determine the right # of teeth gear to use.
