Default RE: New Speedometer

I have the drive shaft without the clips. The place I'll be dyno tuning my car doesn't have a mustang dyno I don't think. Even if the shaft will be fine I think I'll still replace it at some point in the not too distant future to be on the safe side. I do plan on getting a super charger next year so I will have to change it eventually.

I also would like to know if the GT speedometer can be put into our V6's. Not because I plan on going over 120 but because I want to get the Steeda white guage faces. It really is very hard to see how fast I'm going on a bright, sunny summer day. Besides it looks so much cooler with 140 on the spedo instead of 120. Heck, even Civics have 120 mph speedos.

I don't mind it stopping at 120 that's where my old '71 stopped at it, so it fits well with the throwback look. Makes me kinda nostalgic lol

Afixer,

I'm assuming that the old style driveshaft will hold up to hard launches, correct?
Is the only issue with the old driveshaft going above recommended speeds?

I eventually want the X-Charger and don't want my driveshaft to twist or snap after a couple of launches lol.

I currently live in germany, so 110 is cruising speed, I regularly get passed by white delivery vans like I am standing still while going 100.

How do I add my color?
