Just do the 1 mile a minute test. Find a road you can do 60 on and go 60 on what your speedo says. Then look at your odom and start timing at any point. Then stop timing after one miles. If it was longer than 1 minute then you are slow. If it is faster than one minute you are fast.
Then you can go from there to determine your correct speed.
Take the percentage difference of the actual time to a minute and apply that percentage to your speed. Or just trial and error until you get one mile a minute

yeah its a film on the back of the gauges i put white faces ones in and they came with a special indiglo to make up for the film not being there, it should take you about 2.5 hours to do the whole thing, took me bout that the first time then i can do it in under a hour now, i highly suggest you start your stang up and make a diagram of where each needle is, then when putting the needles back on make sure you have it on the little copper piece else your gauges arent going to move. pretty easy to do just really time consuming.
