Speedometer Revs per mile?

[CharlieZ]

Anyone know the number of revolutions the speedometer cable must make to register one mile on the odometer? '90 5 speed Festiva. Stock gears, stock 12 inch tires. Otherwise, as it came from the factory. If I recall, most (older) American cars were 1000 revs/mile.

Thanks in advance.

You sure at 1025 bud?? The last time i made my 150mph speedo that number is not the one i recall.

150MPH! Isn't that like adding an 11 to your volume control? <grin>
