I don't think the compression would be even across all
cylinders if timing chain was broken. Also some cylinders would be burping back into the intake manifold. Also no spark if cam isn't turning.

I would like to ask one question, did the mechanic
open the throttle wide when checking the compression?

Wouldn't the 225s cause the speedo to read higher?
Aren't they smaller in diameter?

Have you checked the water distribution tube? Also. are you
sure the heat sender is the correct unit and is functioning correctly?

First off, beautiful work on your casting!
I don't have the personal knowledge on the louvers but, have been watching with intense interest as my son and I want to do something similar with a 1707, we know it wasn't available but we are approaching from a "what if someone during the summer of 39 had said I'll order a twelve if" and they had been willing to modify the same units they were readying for the 18th series.

You might pull the distributor cap (leave the wires on) and look at the inside for moisture between the terminals.

For sure about the Safety Flex, the thing that caught my
attention was that the other side was tight.

Does the wheel-hub have play if you grasp the top and bottom
of the wheel or just side to side, if just side to side perhaps it is play in a tie-rod end etc.

You are correct, my car was a flat windshield versus the
"wraparound", that little engine could run flat out for long periods and be little worse for wear. Don't ask how I know.
