[urq] They have GPS speedometers - which could supplement the original

This might work for some folks.  Never hurts to have some redundency in a urq.

Subject: [urq] Urq speedometer swap into 4Ktq?
 
Gang,

Sorry for the blasphemy on this list of transplanting an Urq vital organ into a wannabe...   ;)

My father, brother, and I put a 3B into a lovely '84 4KQ (courtesy of Chris Woodward w/ help from Tom Saltino).
I believe the '84 has a speedo that tops out at 85mph.  Needless to say, with just a Stage 1 chip, this car is a rocket-ship
and blows thru 85mph in seconds.  So I am trying to find a nice Christmas present for my father!

(1) Can anyone confirm if the U.S. Urq speedo (mine is 155mph) or the entire instrument cluster can be swapped in place of the 4Kq unit?

(2) Maybe the harder question:  does anyone have a U.S. Urq speedo for sale??

(3) Other ideas?  Maybe a 5Ktq speedo fits and I don't know it....

Thanks,
Eric
'82 Urq
