What speedo does a T5, 305 IROC have?

Was wondering if it's different from an RS or Z28...

It depends on the year. 82-89 speedos are 2000 pulses, while the 90-92's are 4000 pulses.

82-89 are mechanical, 90-92 electrical.

What I meant was, what MPH did they have? 140? 145? 110?

My 85 IROC came equipped with a lowly 85 mph speedo.

One of my 84s came with the airplane speedo and the other one had a 140mph!

Yes on the Camaros. The Firebirds are 82-85 mechanical, 86-92 electrical. I just have to say that so nobody else does.

The TBI and 305 automatics usually have the 110 mph speedo. The 305 5-speeds and 350's usually have the 140 mph speedo. I think it was 1986 or 1987 that the speedos were allowed to read higher than 85 mph.
