Speedo Gear Question, plus needle bounce
 

I made a few minor changes to my speedo calibration:

- New speedo warning head from unknown ratio truck
- New trans with overdrive and unknown expected rear end ratio
- Different rear end ratio
- Taller tires

So, as you can see, all bets were off. But driving by a speed sign I magically found it said 38 when I was at 36. I figure that's close enough, but would I get much closer if I did the math on the error and changed a gear?

Also, I have a tiny bit of needle bounce, like in a 2-3mph window. Anything I can do about that doesn't require rebuilding the speedo? Cable is silent and new.

You might find that the speedo deviation will increase with increased speed (i.e when going 70 it will read 80 - probably an exaggeration, but you get the picture).
