Engine timing on. Thirty

Engine timing on. Thirty was created by Sthorpe
Need help timing the engine on a Thirty. Is the number one cylinder closest to the radiator? Can’t seem to find the timing mark on the flywheel. What doesn’t it look like?

No I don't, sorry. Probably just need to clean the flywheel good.

remove number 1 plug to find tdc , i think the flywheel can be put on in any bolt pattern so timing marks may not show up on the flywheel ? at TDC ,

I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
