Hi guys

I would like to try and order the gauges for my car

so far Ive decided i like the look of the smith gauges but im not sure what i should do about the speedo

should I get the mechanical one and buy the angle drive for the gearbox? would this work or would my speedo readings be out because of different size tires and and different diff?

or should i get the electric one and fit a sensor?

I am using a pinto with capri rear diff if it helps any?

any advice would be appreciated

thanks

Electronic ones are adjustable, very important when changing wheels difs gearboxes, etc......

Electronic - so much less hassle and easy to set up.

Mount the magnets and sensors of one of the "baked bean type" drums at the end of the drive shaft - not on the prop.
