Default flywheel question

I have a 1974 coupe with a 350, 4- speed, I want to replace the starter but don't know if the flywheel has 153 or 168 teeth, it has an 11 inch clutch disk, does anyone know? I don't feel like crawling underneath and trying to count them, thanx.....

The 11 inch clutches used a 168 tooth ring gear. The starter bolts should be offset on the 168 and straight across on the 153.

11" disc = 168 tooth................... EDIT: Gordon is pretty quick on the keyboard.

If you only knew how slow I was on the keyboard. I have improved due to the forum. Just practice I guess.
