Sounds like you're looking at the calibration number, which indicates how many
revolutions the speedo cable makes in a traveled mile.

Your replacement speedo (and odo) will read about 2% lower than the old one,
assuming both were accurate to their calibrations. Not enough to worry about,
IMO. Odds are that will actually make it more accurate, since it's hard to buy
tires as tall as the original ones were.

Sorry, I don't know. Something with slightly smaller tires than a stock TR3A,
apparently.
