Yup. I reconfigured my Metric speedo to read in MPH. All I needed to do was change the Gear ratio and revs per mile in my Xcal II to different numbers and my Metric speedo now indicates MPH where it was previously KPH. It will take a little getting used to but I grew up with MPH.

Why did I do it? Because I was tired of my speedo being pegged at 160 km/hr (100mph). Now I have it indicating all the way to 160 mph. I'll let you know if I get it to peg the new reading.

omg lol. thats kinda cool, but farkin scary to think of a 6000lb truck hittin 160mph lol

 

I get queesy doing 70 mph in my truck...
I did get my '99 up to ~105 mph... scary...... yes, very. It was like a floating boat. Ahh stupid high school years...

 

what was that last year? lol
i know when i was chasing that roush mustang that didnt get away, i dont know how long i was in 4th but my truck was scootin too fast for my likings.

 

yea after about 100 things start ratting and shaking that didnt used to.

Kinda cool tho, now you just need to go in and remove the KMPH from the face of the gauge :o

just curious what settings did you set it to, and is it accurate mileage reading or just close?

 

1 Kilometer = .6214 miles. I did my conversion using BFGs site for revs per mile of 630. I input 4.54 gears and 790 revs per mile and that gave me .62084 miles per km. That makes the calculations 99.99% accurate. I can live with that. Weather or not BFG ATs in the 305 70R16 size actually turn at 630 revs per mile I do not know.

PS the fastest I have been in my truck is somewhere shy of the 130 mph mark. Or was that 140???

 

would be better get a metric Lighting one then




interesting project but I'm happy with my two 130's and the one 140mph that I have

 

But that would cost $$$ and a trip to the dealer. I could always reface this one with a stick on of some sorts. Interesting idea...... Thanks for the thought jogger.
