Is this worth it?

This is a 155 MPH speedo cluster for a Cutlass. Its $200 if you send a core in first. I know you can find factory 120 MPH clusters for cheaper and you dont have to send in a core, but they are getting harder to find.

I'd rather have a factory 120 mph one myself...

I think ill just stick with my 85mph wide sweep gauge.

IMO if your going faster then that, you should keep your eyes on the road, and not on your speedo.

Plus Any faster then that, I can just read off of a tach. (its really not that hard)

i wonder why they chose the number 155? i don't see the point, honestly, if i ever upgraded i'd get a digital dash...now those are sick!

I bet its just a stock gm speedo out of something else.

I really dont like the 155 MPH. Is a G body even safe at that speed? I think the 120 Mph one would be fine for me but I never have the money when they pop up on ebay. I need to ask them if they would lower the speed to around 130. I think all of the numbers look to cramped with a 155 top speed.

I never really liked the digital gauges that are made for G bodies, or a lot of factory set ups either. I guess I am just used to regular gauges.

It says in the description that they re-silk screened the face, so I am sure that it is just a normal G body one that is reprogrammed.

if they are really redoing an old one, they could have done a better job making it look like it was a stock piece.

To me it looks like someone put in a speedo from something else.(maybe its just me, I could be wrong) There is something about the kph in blue that makes it stick out.

And i swear that i seen that same speedo in a corvette or something (the same blue for kph and all) And I am almost positive that my old full size blazer had a speedo that looked like that.

I beleave that most of the stock gm speedos are interchangable, as far as reading of the speedo cable, but the mounts and shape is where the difference comes in.
