no true, trickster. My 89 RS has the 115 speedo.

But to your question, the IROCs either had the 115 or the 145 speedo

Do you have the 2.8L or the 5.0L TBI in your RS. If I remember correctly, the 2.8L had the 85 speedo and the 5.0L TBI had the 115 just like the 5.0L TPI whereas the 5.7L TPI had the 145 speedo. My bad for not including the 5.0L's in this
