That would leave me to conclude the speedo drive motor is receiving more voltage than the odo drive motor, which may be able to be fixed with a resistor change?
The other possibility is the return spring in the speedo has "stretched" a bit (195K and still ticking) and has less resistance, thereby allowing the speedo needle to move further than originally designed.
Good luck, work safely

No, my speedo is off because I don't have the same overall tire diameter that the car originally had. The factory odo/speedo error is something like 3.1%. I read that in C&D.
