would it help if I counted the number of flywheel teeth?

the 48 F1 we are working on has been in the owners family for about 50 years ( they are the second owners), we pulled the starter and it has a 10 tooth gear, but could it be that it was replaced improperly sometime during the first ownership?

do you guys think the 10 tooth starters in the sixes were replaced incorrectly?

thank you

ditto on the 3 or 4 days (or more). we went in 07 for the 75th anniversary get together honoring the 32 ford and the flathead v-8, had a great time, all the places mentioned above are a must see, in my book, take your time and soak it all up. the gift shops have the usuall tourist crap but also...
