thanks, reason i asked is if i fitted a 3.63 to my gt6, wondered if a dolomite or spit speedo would be ok , i would just change the face
of the speedo to the gt6 one.

Ah, I see your point.
Most of the dollies (all?) And the 1500 spit all seem to use a 10000 or whatever it is speedo. The changes to the drive are in the gearbox. Never played, but I believe a variety are available.
I have never had an accurate speedo. I suspect the easiest way to go is to get yours recalibrated. But that is too easy....

I thought it would be interesting to collate a list - this is what I have gleaned so far:

4.11 - Toledo 1300
3.89 - Dolly 1500?
3.63 - Dolly 1850/TR7 4 speed
3.45 - Dolly Sprint
3.27 - Dolly 1850 Auto.

There must be a few cars missing from that list EG: What has a Toledo 1500 got? - if you can find one..........Do OD and non OD cars have different ratio diffs?

thanks all who replied, so heres a question thrown in for you, if the speedo gearing is in the gearbox, would it then be possible to fit say a spitfire or dolomite speedo to a gt6 with the gt6 face on it, and retain the later trip meter push button as oposed to the cable?
get your thinking caps on chaps.
cheers, ian.

cheers richard, but thats the whole point i want to do it myself . i have already had great success with changing the rev counter over from cable to electronic at very low cost compared to what these guys charge.
