what do you need for the speedo to be accurate if you change 130mph to the 140mph clocks? running let with f20box.

will it just be a straight swap?
seen all on other threads just bought off ebay so wonted to find out real quick but thanks for looking anyway

mines the later B model and its electric. i had 0 - 130, then changed them to sport clocks with 0 - 140 and its perfect.

but with an older version, i.e. cable driven, they will be out at about 60mph on-wounds

i'm not sure, you'll have to take your clocks out and have a look. 96, i'd assume its cable driven. late as in 99-00 maybe 97-98 i'm not sure
