Scroll down, courtesey of Chesh, now Foggies I think!

Basically, hall effect on the wheel i think, and either a fuel flow sender, or injector circuit board for carb/ing models

I'm current hacking up a separate distance thingy for Kar and Fake for rallies as my nav isn't good at judging distances :P, want me to let you know how it goes? Currently involves a late 400 speedo, and a very similar speed pickup from the rear axle...

I think it's possible to fit a impulse sender unit on speedo cable. That would be easiest and cleanest way.
