I drove over to Battle of the Brits last Sunday, first time I've had it on the highway. My top speed was 69 mph at 5,000 rpm.

In 4th gear at 70, you should be pulling about 3500 rpm. I have similar problems, but not to your extreme. My tach is accurate at idle, but gets more and more inaccu; /html/6pack/2002-09/msg00203.html (8,918 bytes)

Lang" <lang@isis.mit.edu>; Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2002 14:21:10 -0400 (EDT); 5900 RPM's in 4th gear with stock tire diameter (26.5 inches, more or less) and a stock TR6 3.70 differential should equate to over 110 MPH. 100 MPH is something just over 5000 in 4th.

(score: 1): Author: tr6taylor@webtv.net (Sally or Dick Taylor); Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2002 11:48:06 -0700 (PDT); All--It shouldn't really matter what the differential ratio or the tire size would be in Bryan's reading. If he's seeing 5000 rpm at 69mph, this is a relation between the tach and the speedo. He shou; /html/6pack/2002-09/msg00225.html (7,589 bytes)

Older American cars had speedo drive gear options available for various rear end ratios.

But if he's seeing 5000rpm at an indicated 69mph (with a stock Triumph gearbox), he'd only be seeing around 50mph at 5000rpm in third; /html/6pack/2002-09/msg00231.html (7,852 bytes)

This would surely cause high revolutions, less power and no speed. Robert L. Gannon trsix74@comcast.net TR6 1974 CF22956U TR3A 1960 T; /html/6pack/2002-09/msg00234.html (7,671 bytes)
