anyone know MPH/1000 RPM?
My spedometer cable broke today on my 1991 N/A FC. Can anyone give me MPH per 1000 RPM for each of the Five gears? I can't afford a ticket! If worse comes to worse, I'll take just 5th. Thank you in advance for your help.

usually safe to say that 2k is the usual way to guess...
2k in 2nd = 20
2k in 3rd = 30
2k in 4th = 40
2k in 5th = 50

NA and turbo models would differ because of different gearing right? Tire and rim size other than stock would also throw off the speedo rating.

What I'm really looking for is a gear chart (from Car And Driver, Road & Track, etc.) for my STOCK 91 N/A. The cable broke today. I have already ordered another cable, but I still have to drive to work through quite a few 55 down to 45 down to 35 in a 1/4 mile speed traps. A rough estimate of RPM at 60 in 5th would be great!
