on my 21 down is retard and up is advance and i usually start with the spark fully retarded or just a little up from fully retarded. That line seems too high for starting but every car is different.
I am looking for a 1921 big six exhaust manifold. Mine is sagging at the ends so badly that we cannot get it to stop leaking.
I expect any one we find will likely have the same problem. Before we try to straighten mine I hope to find a spare i case it breaks.
casting number 35280-2

I think a reasonable solution here would be:
I sell my 22 trans to Don
I buy tonys early box
Henry Buys the remaining as he is happy to fit whatever transmission he can get. l
Alternatively, I need the main shaft and gears from an early trans and henry has most of an early trans so we could share that one since I think henry already has the parts that I need in his incomplete unit.
Henry, what year is yours? My 21 is almost not drivable due to the trans. I have had it apart and am going to take it back out again but I need pieces.

Tony,
that trans on the let with the lock sticking up is very similar to my 21. I suspect not correct for the 22 that don has, I would like to buy it if possible.
What is your asking price? And lets compare the casting numbers.

Mine had this sort on it, which seemed pretty original, but I remade it all with black

That sounds like it will be fine. I learned to test them by putting the whole chamber over my mouth and sucking air in. It doesnt work very well if you have a beard. As long as it closes and creates an ok seal it will be ok
I am pretty sure I have a spare 22 trans but I would only let it go in exchange for a spare 21 trans.
My spare has good main shaft components but worn secondary shaft components as they have already been traded out.
