[Healeys] Speedometer

[pennell at cox.net]

All,

I am running 185/70 Yokohamas.  Rear is 3.9 as far as I know but have not checked it.   Don't know about the gears in the rebujilt tranny or OD.  In order to account for the large error in speed and distance these would have to be way different from stock sizes or gearing.
