Re: Speedometer CAble size?
Curious, I went to the autometer web site where I found the following:
Where can I purchase speedometer cables and how can I calibrate my speedometer?
"We first suggest contacting Speedometer Service out of Milwaukee, WI. They can assist you with adapters, cable gears, and new cables for virtually every application. The phone number to reach them at is: (414) 463-6660.
"Speedometer cables may be purchased at your local auto parts store. Auto Meter speedometers come with a standard 5/8" x 18 threaded cable input that requires a .104" sq. male drive. The speedometer is calibrated for a 1:1 drive ratio (1,000 RPM at 60 MPH input at the speedometer head.)"
I'd be interested in what you finally discover.
