Got the exhaust system attached.  It went together very easy, oneof the

simplest parts of this project so far.  Everything just fit (once I filed

the gaskets a little bit).  Definatly recommend the Vetterman exaust if

anybody is wondering.



  Looking ahead to later steps, I'm going to need a flywheel and starter

ring gear.  Reading around, lycomings have either the 122 or 149 tooth

gear, is there a way I can look at the starter I have and know which gear

would fit?  I can find lots of pages like this:



http://www.skytecair.com/RingGearTech.htm



explaining how to tell from the gear which it is, but nothing going the

other way.  It is a O-360A1D, so probably 149, but how can I know?  Or

should I just get one, then get a new starter to match?  That page talks

about the first 3 digits of the starter model number, which is Delco-Remy

1109519.  Searching by that I find:

Which says it is for a 122 tooth gear.  Anybody know how to tell?

All I can do is quote the Lycoming Parts catalog. If I am reading it correctly for the -A1D, it uses the same parts as the common -A1A:

    

   Support Assy (Flywheel) with Ring Gear Lycoming P/N LW-16064

   Starter Ring gear only Lycoming P/N 72566

 

   I'm pretty sure this is the 149 tooth gear, but I would start by searching based on Lycoming P/Ns to ensure that you get what is correct for your engine.

    

   Regarding the starter, I would just suck it up and get a Skytec.
