Spikehaus, isn't the electric pulse output exactly what's needed for digital speedos?

I have no idea? I can find no documentation for this online? A simple wiring diagram or numberr of pulse outputs would help!

Try John at Digital Speedos Spike:

http://www.digital-speedos.co.uk/

He has started to sell a type 9 adaptor for digital speedos, i dont think he has started to list them yet but he does sell them with a speedo kit. I can sell them but as part of a kit - i'm sure he will sell them on their own if you contact him. Tell him Andy from Saturn sent you, they ain't too much anyway. David Murray has just received one as part of a kit.

All the best AndyH

I have uploaded these photos to help explain the type of speedo drive I have. I think it could be from a Granda MK3

I spoke to the speedo man today at the show, but he had never heard of it!

It has the following part numbers stamped on it: - 8A2 17253

The Telemetrix (Smiths) speedo I fitted has a wiring loom that will take multiple inputs for different senders then once the speedo is reading something you can dial in different numbers to fine tune it
