If the 127 is on the feed screw any even combo will give a metric.
However to get the indicated metric on the gear box the combo is
50 head
40 and 60 idler I think it will will only fit one way round
127 feed screw.
I will follow up with photo of feed plates metric later
As for metric dial some Harrison,s had both on the dial mine does but it is ex College.
The actual screw remain imperial, however now and then metric feed screws come up on Ebay and are not hard to change.
Manual available I think it worth it as everything is in it.
