I have my Speedometer being recalibrated at North Hollywood and debating of switching to MPH. Any thoughts out there other than not doing math while driving?
Thanks - Joe

Why not get them to put both on? It's standard stuff on modern automobiles up here.
I got so used to doing the KPH to MPH conversion ( Kph X .6 =MPH. ) that it never bothered me after the second week.... 
My car is KPH. I guess it might depend on how authentic you want to get. Is KPH more in line with a car that is built to resemble a euro version (red and orange tail lights) etc?
My car is a U.S. version but with KPH. Is that the way they were sold in the U.S.?
So whatever makes it more convenient for you to drive.
That is really the question Bob. Not that I am caught up in authenticity I know I drive a replica but dig the nostalgia of it.

If ever asked by a cop how fast you were going, try not to reply with "about 100".
It just makes it seem like you're going faster.
Joe, what are they going to ding you for? This is the time to do it if your wanting MPH.
Cost is negligible and converting to MPH. They are also fixing my odometer and calibrating the speedo.
Joe, MPH.
Joe, I just had North Hollywood switch out my MPH face for KPH. I've driven, up here in Canada, for years with a mph speedo and I've never liked it. I'd recommend getting it changed. I cost me $140.
