[BMWCSRegistry] FW: 5 speed conversions - speedometers

[David Dart]

Carlos,

You have done it again! This is what I'll need when I put in the switchable
4 speed auto  with the 3.5 and Motronic (eventually!).

Cheers

David.

While kicking around 5 speed conversions and speedometers, this interesting
item came to light:
http://www.abbott-tach.com/cablex.htm
It is a mechanical speedometer drive that can be driven/controlled by an
electrical pulse signal, which can be taken off the driveshaft or c/v shaft
in our case.  The ratio is adjustable, so it should even be possible to have
an accurate speedometer!
It opens up a lot of possibilities as far as donor transmissions, but it
looks like "lab quality" and somewhat pricey.

Does anyone know a less sophisticated and accordingly priced system?
Maybe something in the "aircraft surplus" genre?
