Al_Lake Wrench Fetcher A Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 65 Missoula, MT	Just took my 54 out for the first test drive after getting her all back together. 400 sb, 400 turbo tranny, nova rear end, camaro front, electronic after market tach. The speedometer read way low (25mph when I was going 50mph) and the tach read way high (6000rpm when going 55mph). The engine didn't seem to be overrevved. Any ideas? Thanks
