Remove the cable from the trans and check with a variable speed drill. It will help narrow down the source some
that will tell you if the speedo is calibrated right, most american cable driven speedo's are calibrated at 1000 rpm
it will also tell you if you have a problem in the cable drive; as in the cable slipping in the trans

if the speedo comes apart easily look for the needle hitting either the face or the back
i know with the mods i did on my stock speedo i had to bend the needle carefully to go between the face and volt meter
