The formula for speedometer is derived from the relationship between distance, time, and speed. Speed is calculated using the formula: Speed = Distance / Time. In a speedometer, the vehicle's speed is typically displayed in units such as miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h) by measuring the rotational speed of the wheels and converting that into speed based on the vehicle's tire circumference.
To calibrate your speedometer after switching the rear end to a 3.73 gear in your 1997 Firebird Formula, you'll need to adjust the speedometer gear or use a tuning tool if your vehicle is equipped with an electronic speedometer. If using a mechanical speedometer, replace the speedometer gear with one that corresponds to the new gear ratio. For electronic systems, you may need a handheld tuner or a reprogramming tool to adjust the speedometer settings according to the new rear-end ratio. Always verify the calibration by comparing the speedometer reading to a GPS or radar speed measurement.
