It was some aftermarket dealer install back in the day, nothing from GM decided what cars got it or not.

After market as TraviZ mentions. Here's the info:

It appears that the same fellow offered the speedo on site. Note that he was told that the speedo was after market but the craigslist ad still claims "rare factory."
EDIT: He's come down $250 from the original price:

List 1LE in the parts description and the price increases 100%. Same way some people say it is a Corvette part, like it make it more expensive.

Re: 160 speedo 1le??? is this for real
Yeah i've seen these before, i'm not too fond of how the font doesnt match the rest of the gauges. My 83 Z28 has the 140mph speedo that has the "Z28" logo on it. As far as I know that was the only GM dealer offered add on as far as speedos went.

Re: 160 speedo 1le??? is this for real
The guy is still trying to sell it on C.L. here in St. Louis. He also has an ad out in Springfield, MO. He still wants $500 for it and I remember when I called him initially way back in September of 2009 asking about it & he said he wanted $750 for it!!!
Now that I think of it is there any place that can make this for my 88 IROC? I saw the original ad on here in .gif format but I'm not sure if they're still in business.

If you want 160 MPH speedo get overlays for all your gages, not expensive. Then you will have that 160 or 180 MPH look. Picture of my 145 MPH overlays.
