OK all
    I'm still stuck on this Speedometer thing with the Stag and OD.

    As y'all know my speedo reads 72 when it should be 60

    Spitfires had 3 speedo types.  the numbers in the front were 1000 , 1184
and 1248(jaeger mk1)

    When I added an overdrive to my spitfire, the speedo was off, I changed it
from a 1000 type to a 1184 type, (or vice versa can't remember)  It made it
correct.

So I took 72 x 1000 / 1184 and got 60.8 MPH

I believe  (and correct me if I am wrong)  that the numbers 1000 and 1184  and
1248 mean the number of revs for 60 MPH  or maybe 100 KMH

So all of you with Stags and original OD's   does your speedo on the bottom of
the dial face read 1184?

AGAIN THANKS AS ALWAYS

THnx
