i have an 82 Z/28 305 carby model, The speedometer goes to 85mph on one side,and kilometers on the other,,, is this standard on these cars,,,i am in Australia,, most cars were metric since 1975,,,maybe this was added in 1985 when the car was converted to right hand drive,,,for registration needs here,IS THERE ANOTHER SPEEDO IN MILES P/Hour only

Canadian cars have metric speedos. We have been metric since 1977.

My '82 T/A has both MPH and KLM. this was standard for this year and did not have to be changed when your car was converted in Aus, because it had KLM's on it, it was legal. The MPH is a bonus. Go to Readers Rides and on the 82 T/A owned by KIZZ you will see a pic of the 82 St'd speedo.
