I need a new 140 speedo also. Mine makes noise and reads WAY too slow. 10 - 20 MPH slow. The odometer reads about 13% low, the trans is not original but the plastic speedo gear is original, would a different tailshaft gear in the trans make it read low.

I have only seen one GT in the junkyard so far, forgot to check for the speedo
