Anyone who knows, please. What is the rpm of a 1964 Dream at 60 mph? Thanks

I'm guessing in that 4500-5500 rpm range.

The rpm at 60mph should be printed on your CA77 speedo face. I have seen it printed on the Yazaki, Fuji Denki and Nippon Seiki speedos. Depending on the brand 60mph = 2240 to 2250 rpm.

Tom

I think that's the r.p.m of the cable. Effectively the speedo calibration.
