trip is right but speedo is 30% fast?

I know the speedo assembly is a replacement. Once I discoverd that the speedo was way off (fast) I assumed the odometer was off too. It hit me that my mileage calculations were off and I was getting something like 19-20 mpg Well, I checked the odometer Friday and it was dead on. Whats up with that? On the upside with the odometer being correct I get 28mpg now I average almost 400 miles on a 14 gallon fillup.
