Speed at top gear (4spd)

I just want to confirm if my speedometer is correct.

I have an early '71 with the older shifter design 4spd.

 

My speedometer reads 86-87mph at 4000rpm in 4th gear.

Is that about the correct speed?

KEIN,

 

Probably the easiest way to check your speedo is to just drive on the freeway and compare your odometer mileage to the mile markers on the side of the freeway...there are also roads marked with speedometer tests, but, they're kinda hard to find when you need one.

 

If you can find a side-of-the-road radar sign, those help, too...again...hard to find when you actually need one.
