Question speedometer limit

correction, my speedo dial goes to 160mph but the needle stops at 80mph, would recalibration be the fix?

My SC has the 160 speedometer. (1983) I thought it was only the 78-80 that had the 80 mph. See if you can swap, or get it recalibrated.

Swapping will be cheaper

Sure, if a correct odometer isn't important to you.

When I had mine converted by Palo Alto Speedometer, it was about $130, IIRC.
