You need to find out what the revs per mile on your car is. The rear 
end or the transmission may have been changed.
If you measure out 52.8 feet and move the car over that distance while 
counting the cable revs. That will give you the revs per mile.
Then the speedo can be re geared to the correct revs per mile.
