chris172 Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 During my search for a converted speedo.... I need KMH... I came across a mechanical 'converter'. Unfortunately I cannot get anymore info other than a photo of said item. Has anyone come across anything like this??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobH Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 I'm sure if you wanted a 1.61:1 non-reversing speedo drive gearbox, these people could provide one: http://www.speedograph-richfield.com/html/minature_gearbox.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Moltu Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 Could you not use a Metric speedo? The mechanicals are the same, just the dials that differ. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John McCormack Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 Converters were popular here after we changed from imperial to metric about 1975. Haven't seen one for ages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chris172 Posted December 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 where's the best place to get a KMH speedo... I'm in Spain and most probably need one to pass ITV (MOT) even historics need MOTs here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike C Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Mo old 1969 Australian TR6 Smith's speedo has a MPH outer scale on the outside and a KMH inner scale . If you can find one that might suit your purpose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
