I have a 90 mustang hatch lx. 5.0 5 speed. I recently removed my cluster cause it had a 170 saleen mph"cluster"? Upon removing the fasteners and taking it apart I peeled off the "saleen" 170 mph black face and underneath it was the ?stock? 85 mph black face. My question is.. From all my research I've found that .. in short.. my 90 stang came with a 140 mph cluster? Is that accurate? Or did my car come with the 85 mph speedo? Was a 90+ 4 cyclinder cluster installed?

What is the OEM cluster MPH that is suppose to come factory with my car?
Was there 85s and 140 mph face's that came with the 90 5.o's?
It does have the air bag light.
It would seem someone bought a 170 mph Saleen face and put it over top of the stock 85 mph face.

any help would be great. I want to buy the correct for year cluster but I cannot find a definitive answer as to whats suppose to be in it.

They came with the 85 or the 140 cluster. As long as the saleen cluster has been calibrated abd let's not forget all saleens started as lx models with the 85 mph speedometer it will be fine.

It was just a saleen 170 mph face glued over top the 85 mph "factory" face. The needle stop was at 10mph on the saleen face and the mph was off.. I do have a 3.55 gear but.. at 40 it says 30 and dont move till it says 20 mph.. It was a glued on saleen face...
 
Yes. Saleen just covered up the factory unit abd then recalibrated it. Depending on your gears and tire size your needle could be waaaay off.
