Oldguard 7, that one and the one like it in my '78 originally came from a shop called Corvette Clinic. As for actually going that fast, in a previous configuration my shark would almost get there. Next setup should also if I can ever afford to complete it, and easily top that with an OD box.

I need just the button?(I hope)

It's hard to repalce it with the speedometer in place?

Do you have some advice about it?

Thank you.
