Just wondering if anyone has had their Mustang over 220 km/hr.
I have a 93 with the 220km/hr 135 mph speedometer.
Did a sweep down a brand new smooth as glass new section of highway. Circled back after seeing no heat hiding. Waited for a empty section with no other traffic and let her eat.
I have 3.73's and a 275 40 17 tire. I was above 4500 but below 5000rpm in 5th. It still seemed to be climbing in speed and rpm but the needle seemed to no go over 220km/hr.
Don't see a pin on that end of the speedometer.
It was a totally different car but I used to have a 79 New Yorker with a 440 swapped in.
Last number on the speedometer was 200km/hr 120mph but I could bring the needle way past the last number, past the trip odometer at the bottom and almost touch the pin under zero on the other side.

there is a nipple on the back of the speedometer that stops the needle from goin any further
