Halda T gears

Post by abri »

Hi all,

I managed to get my hands on a Halda Speedpilot Mk IV. I'm a complete noob to these and was considering selling it on, but I started reading up and am wondering what T-gears are used to fit these to a Mini? The unit came with a "gearbox" screwed onto the back of it that says 7.5:1 on it. It also came with a T-gear that has V14 and 8:1 on it. I assume one needs a short length of cable to connect between the speedo and the T to remove it slightly back from the tight area in the binnacle right behind the speedo?

Basically I'd like to know which T gears and cables people use to fit these to a Mini.

Thanks for any advice

Real halda bits look very pricey... How ever speedy cables seem to be able to make up junction boxes and cables with different ends. That's my plan for when I get it installed..
I've got a 69 Mini with a 1046, Cooper Head and a four on the floor.

You need a v12 for a mini plus the other 7.5:1 drive.
