Plymouthy Adams Posted June 21, 2023 Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 Anyone here that would like to try to solve an issue for me....respond in PM and I will send you the data and maybe you can tell me if this can be solved in an equation. Never did do well in algebra.....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted June 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 For the record I came up with an answer but I would like a second opinion.....I did some reverse calculations to arrive at my answer as I have trouble with equations...

DJ194950 Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 Well if the rocket does not launch, you had the incorrect answers to your math? ? Not willing to get it a go? DJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ I gave it a go....I have a solution....two heads are better than one and at the cost of some 250.00...a second opinion would be nice before parting with the coin....so I gather you not that up on your math either......? The super killer is that no one lists the specs on anything and computer says it fits only if you give them make and model, as a builder you are at a loss if looking for an item to work and do not have it in your hot little hands...no dimension ever given these days and parts counter folks are useless. Now if you don't do your own building then this is likely not something you can relate to. Edited June 22, 2023 by Plymouthy Adams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can relate. Years ago you used to be able to get parts books with various dimensions listed and such, which made this kind of thing easier. Not so much now days. got a recent HS graduate sitting right here, he ought to be able to do that math, shoot the PM over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted June 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Thanks for reaching out, PM sent, was able to muddle through it as my buddy dug through his storage and supplied the TPM from the donor that verified my method/math and on top of that, a company that used to build speedometer corrector/adapters but told me he can no longer can get the gears sent a second message later and offered his services that confirmed my calculations even though he could not supply an adapter, thought that was very kind gesture on his part. Being a British vehicle I am messing with, they do not have changeable gears in transmission to correct for differential or tires size changes, NO, they swap the entire speedometer. In the case of my build it had a 4.55 rear gear that one mile is equivalent to 1504 turns. At 36% error with my now taller tires of the Morris and the 3.727 rear gears installed, thus an inline corrector is a must.
