Now Kipsy... or anyone else with a 4.8 diff is there any chance you could count how many revolutions the prop does for one complete turn of the rear wheel. The reason I ask is because I tried two different Standard Toyota T50 gearboxes in my car and both gave the same, but wrong speedo reading. My car is an ex-stage rally car so it may already be on a 4.8 diff or similar.
I guess the above idea would work ?
Just done a quick check for you and on 13" wheels with 185/60 tyres your car would be doing 122mph @ 7500 rpm. Have alook here:http://www.johnmaherracing.co.uk/gearcalc.htm
and here for T50 ratios: http://www.domsat.co.uk/pages/gearboxes.htm

Ill have a look over the weekend if i got time! Im running 185/60 14s. 122 is faster than i thought! It used to pull just over 7k rpm with standard gearing- on a huge straight though
