220mph Speedo?

Who makes this? I have one in my camaro, and wanted to know where it came from. Yes, 220 (like 225 actualy) MPH, not KPH speedo (3xx kph). The speedo is calibrated too, 60 is like where 30 is normaly... hard to get used to but kinda fun

I want one of those!!! Thats way cool. I want one too.

Of course you do realize that you have to try and do that sort of speed, just to see if the needle can actually climb that high

hehe. Won't do 220, but she will climb to 155. We've done 120 just getting on the highway from the on-ramp

Got to love these high-rev'n strokers

By the way, what exactly is a stroker? I've been wondering this one for a while

Maybe macewin motor sports could make a overlay. all It would need is to have equal spacing between 10-20-30-40-50-60-70 etc.etc. then you could get a cyberdyne box (I need one for my T-56 swap anyway) to adjust the speedo.

Can somebody maybe E-mail macewin motor sports?
