140mph speedo swap

ive really been wanting to get a 140mph speedo on my bird and did some searching online and found a place that sells gauge faces for my '88. my question is this, has anyone done this before and were/are there any issues i should know before i proceed further with this? i did notice that if i go with the white face (probably will) then the needle colors will have to change by either painting the existing needles or by getting new ones of a different color. white on white is a litte hard to see lol. any thoughts?

Panther37 also sells white face gauges with all kinds of options, of course, you'd still need to mod the speedo itself if going over 85, so this doesn't really help your question, but it may give you an idea for your cluster once you've done the 140 conversion. :)
