You have 2 options really, get the speedo calibrated, or fit a drive that would suit a lower ratio diff, see This build thread:

Scott at Cockrams may be able to assist if there is nothing available second hand.

Ok it looks like I need a blue cog for it as if got a 3.7 diff in it.anyone no what gearbox the blue cog is in or where to get.ive got an old dogleg and it's yellow and a 4 speed.think dogleg is 19 tooth and 4 speed is 16tooth
