I am a bit confused. My Cuda AAR does have the standard tach with a 120 mph speedo. When I look into the specs of the AAR it shows a top speed of 137 mph. Could it be that the AAR used the speedo from the rallye instruments which shows 150mph? I'll tell you right now, with 3:55 gears there is NO WAY an AAR will do 137. Maybe 125 tops. Might be able to do 137 with 3:23 gears. Trust me, I know what the top end is on a 1970 340 Cuda with 3:55's!

If the car came with a tach doesn't it have the rally cluster? Which would be a 150 mph speedo? Correct

sorry guys, i mixed some names. In Germany we use the word tach(o) for a speedo. I do have a std. cluster, with no tach. However, the technical authority here will not let my Cuda get street legal until i have this issue fixed (typically German behaviour). Since i have to adapt mph to kmh just with tape stripes for 30, 50 and 100 kmh, my idea is to get a 39 teeth speedo pinion and remove the existing with this. I have 3.55 gears and 245/60 15 rear tires.
