[6pack] tachometer rebuild

[Sally or Dick Taylor]

Ian---Your speedo should read 62mph when taching 3,000 in 4th gear. (The speedo should be reading 75.6 at 3600 rpm)

Hi all. I am hoping you guys can provide some insight.

I just had my tachometer rebuilt by Nissonger Instruments. They did a real nice job and it is working much better than before. There is no longer any bounce and it isn't hanging up and jumping all over the place. My only question is that it use to register 3,000 RPMs in 4th gear when I was doing 70 MPH. Now it is about 3,600 in 4th gear at that speed. Of course I have always had my doubts about the accuracy of the speedo as well. I am running 205/70/15 tires. The transmission and rear end are stock. No overdrive. Is this normal?
