I am looking for good collets for 21 CMB
I have a few from different sellers and they are a pain !
Some are not shallow enough
Others are not sized correct for the 3 1/16 shafts that destroy the shafts.
 
A/A collets for 1/4 X 28 thread and 3/16' cable are $23.00 each delivered in the USA.

They are made in the USA of stainless steel and brass.

If you think the collet on the engine has too much run out, loosen the cable nut and turn the flywheel 180 degrees, then tighten the cable nut and check run out again. Do the sqme thing over again moving the flywheel 90 degrees and retest. You will find that when you find the best flywheel position, there will be no run out from the cable collet.

I should have added that the flywheel should be turned 180 degrees and later 90 degrees on the brass collet as well as the crankshaft.
