SNIP..Also since my speedo stopped working recently, what are the
corresponding speeds for certain rpms for a '65 4-speed Corsa
transmission. I believe the differential is stock for the car
also.....Snip
The speedo/tach on my 69 Fitch Sprint ('66 Corsa based) is approx 3100
rpm for 60-65 mph in 4th. This is with a 3:55 AXLE and 205 60 Tires. I
basically equate multiplying the tach first two numbers by two to get
the speed. 30xx rpm = 60 25xx rpm = 50. Some does depend on the axle
ratio and the tire size. Anybody else have a SWAG?
Getting all the information is most of the solution.
