Are 223 timing pointers universal?
Hi, my 223 didn't have a timing pointer on it when I got it, and I'd like to have one if possible. I've never used a vacuum gauge to time the motor, but I'll give that a shot if I can't find a timing pointer. Seems like it would be an easy thing to find as they made these engines for about a million years, but I can't find any suppliers out there. If they're universal between models and years, then I might be able to pull one off of a car or something else, even a newer model. Thanks as always!

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any NOS, none on ebay.
