Anyone here have a running driving Martin Bott 915 / 916 conversion with mechanical speedo drive ?
My car is up and driving but my mechanical speedo shows 120 mph when GPS says 60. I've tried other 914 speedos and even borrowed a '72-'73 911 speedo to see if that was the difference. It wasn't. A well known instrument restorer suggested the difference I was seeing was outside the range of normal adjustment. I'm trying to stay with 914 era parts. Anyone ? |

See if California Motorsports (Lake Havasu) has a different 915 drive gear for the problem .
