My starter is starting to bind when the engine get hot, and not turn the engine over. I have to hit it with a pipe, to make it work. I went to order a starter from Summit Racing, and they ask me did I have 153 or 168 tooth flywheel. Short of taking the flywheel off, and counting the teeth, I would I know? I do know the the 8th digit of the vin is an "8", which it think it signifies the following: Starter Vin "8", NipponDenso. Please let that mean something to someone!!!
