The 'Rhodes' site  is what I use to calibrate mine... works provided the 
odo gear is somewhere in the right ballpark and the hairspring & magents 
are in good condition.  As for 16" wheels -- what really matters is the 
dimension with the tire.  This can vary from original as 1947 tires 
tended to be taller and skinnier than their modern counterparts.
