Check your tire and wheel size. You might need to change them out to avoid getting tickets or beaware of your speed and drive accordingly. I got a ticket once because the factory installed a drive shaft that was a little to long.

I have a 66 too and was told yes your tire size makes adifference but if you like the aggressive look of your wheels then there are different plastic gears for about $15 dollars that change the speedometer ratio to fix this problem.:rolleyes: i hope this helps
