Alistair,
I've had/got English 21 studs with and without the plugs in the pan rail.
A note on these English engines, the crank is different to the US 1937- early 38 ones, the English war time cranks have two oil holes per rod journal also the front (snout) of the crank is the same as the later 24 stud cranks, as in its longer than the US 21 stud, I have one running 8BA front parts, crank pulley just plopped straight on, with its seperate "seal" collar.
Martin.
