So, my 87 3/4 ton Burb with a 454/turbo400 combo stock - I'm assuming the speedo is mechanical? I'm about to delete the smog equipment and TBI (no comments from the peanut gallery bout that, I don't care what you think). Trying to decide whether to use an almost complete set of Autometer gauges I have and just add the speedo or go with the new wave stuff. It will be much cheaper to add the speedo to what I have, and this is not a show truck so don't tell me about the gauge "angled" crap with the the $900-1600 gauges - not interested in that either.

Am I correct that my TH400 is a mechanical speedo setup?
