People need to realize that digital printing is critical
to the future of our hobby, as key parts are no longer available for our cars.
Traditional methods of casting a part are prohibitive for a small run.
In the future, we should be able to download a file from
the club's website containing a scan of the part that we need. After finding a
shop that has a suitable 3D printer, we should be able to email the file to that
shop and receive a perfect reproduction shortly thereafter.

pinion gear for 300G
Does this sound like a project for the reproduction department? With
the advances of digital printing techniques if we had an assortment of the
various gears they could be reproduced and made available to all perhaps
fairly reasonable. The problem would be to collect the right assortment of
gears and then find a source to make them using one of the new computer
printing devices. If they can do this on the space station and at Jay Leno's
it might work here. Maybe that this is just fantasy, but it is a thought.

Yes, the odometer registers the correct mileage. Having
checked that and the gear for being the correct one, it left the speedometer
needing calibration as the culprit. I have never bothered with it, as I make
the adjustment mentally as I drive (and assisted by a radar detector ...
lol).

- Michael, does your speedometer show the distance travelled correctly
against a marked mile? If that is correct, then youâ??re correct that your
speedo needs calibration.

- My "F" has the proper gear for the rear axle
ratio of the car, but reads 12 mph slow at highway speeds. It has been off
that far since I obtained the car in 1979. I always attributed it to the
speedometer being out of calibration........

- As a check of the speedometer I have used a portable GPS readout
(hand held). My RAM Charger is on it's third speedometer and reads about
10 mph slow at 55. I'm sure that somewhere I got the wrong cable or gear
or something, but for pushing snow it works. John Holst ( i have a sign
on the dash that warns people not extend arms outside the window at
speeds above 120 mph)

300G.Ã? My speedo reads lower than it should and I'd like to see
if I can improve its accuracy, at 40 mph I'm actually doing about
45.Ã? I'm running 235/75R15 tires and a 2.93 rear axle.Ã?
Any suggestions on the proper gear? I know they come in different
colors to differentiate different ratios.
