I just installed an OD trans in my 78B.  Before the conversion, the speedo
needle jumped and never gave an accurate reading.  As this is a typical
sympton of a bad cable, I never did anything about it until I installed the
new trans, since, I needed to install a new, longer cable.

Now the speedo gives accurate readings at 45 mph or below (18miles/1000rpm in
fourth, and 22 miles/1000 rpm in 4th with the OD in) but at higher speeds the
speedo reads low.  The faster I go, the greater the difference.  Does anyone
know how to calibrate the speedo?
