Adding another data point, I have a Zoerman-Clark small?metal lathe (circa 1940) that has MT0 in both the spindle and tailstock. ?It took a long time to find a new dead center.
I hope to pass this lathe on to a museum or something.

Check for sure on both ends Stuart before you buy things..... the most common config (if the headstock has not been altered) is MT3 on the spindle and MT2 on the tailstock.
MT3-MT2 adapters are around and cheap if you get in a fix.? I have things that use from MT1 through 3, and have a 3-2 and a 2-1 adapter at the ready (I have some older arbors that are MT1).?
