What about if you converted the clocks to the non ABS ones? 2 different clock types on ZRs I believe.

I'm used to the good old flexi speedo drive on my MGB's knew where you were with them.

Think it was from a Rover 400? I then used something called a "speedo healer" which amplifies or cuts down the input signal from the gearbox to drive the ZS speedo, the ZS speedo has quite a high input frequency requirement but the speedo healer sorts it
I was under the impression you were using 400 clocks too so surprised you needed to modify the signal. Or have you since gone back to ZS clocks? Got a link for the speedo healer? Not come across those before...
