I would buy some gauges if they could just use black and white like on 94-current camaros, I would rather do that and get ultra white bulbs then white faced gauges, maybe even make the speedometer go higher? maybe you could fit 170 on there?

150 or maybe if you try 160 is the most you can fit on a Camaro 145 speedo. I know someone got 200 on a 145 firebird speedo I think, can't recall.

And to answer this question which i keep getting emails about!


NO YOU CAN NOT PRINT OUT A 145MPH SPEEDO AND STICK IT ON YOUR 110MPH SPEEDO AND ASK ME HOW TO SET IT TO THE CORRECT CALIBRATION, IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY. GET A CLUE!!!

You believe I've been asked that 30 times already.
