Thanks George, I'll try that and report back. I did not change the gear in the
transmission, so the odometer still reads in MPH, which is handy for the trip
meter when checking the fuel tank reserve, with an erratic gas gage. I thought
that the the gearing may be immaterial; the only difference being in the numbers on the scale. I got the KPH cluster from a '65 and when I tried to install the entire cluster, that's when I realized the speedometer cable connector was different at the cluster end. I was in a bit of a hurry to finish the car, so the incorrectly adjusted cluster has remained for 4 years. I have a better KPH scale with the gray crinkle paint intact, so have to do some more surgery in the next week.
