There is a fellow in California who makes speedo gear boxes for things like the MGA rear end in a TD. He will tell you how to calculte and then make a gearing to suit. We got one a short time back for under $200 US.
But I don't really think you will exceed 120kph in a TC unless you have it supercharged or fall off a cliff. . . . And It would be one strong driver that would be able to handle it at that speed.
In the 50's there was a supercharged TC around here driven by a lady on Airport courses. NO guys it wasn't me. I'm the original sissy, except I turned a ton in my Volvo Wagon once.
