From what I understand, Autometer's speedo's are made to fit up against the american trannies (Ford, Chevy), so your biggest problem is the speedo's accuracy. I have a mechanical Ultra-lite in my 1302, with Topline's disk brakes, and 17in rims. The speedo runs about 10mph slower than the car's actual speed. I asked the local race shop about the electric, but they said the senders are made to bolt onto an American car Transmission, so there's not really a way to fit it right up to your left brake. I've been trying to figure out this problem for almost a year now (haven't been driving the car much, but when I do I have no speedo). The best I can figure, since I already have the mech-drive speedometer, is take the speedometer to a shop that can pull the guage apart and replace the drive gear with a smaller one, to make the needle turn up faster.

Otherwise, it looks friggin' awesome in the super...
