I need to know what the exact measurement (vernier caliper) from the starter mounting surface to the ring gear. I have a different trans and want to make sure my depth is correct.


Thanks,

Erik

Not quite sure how to import a drawing, so I will try to describe what measurement I am looking for.

When the engine and transmission are bolted together with the flywheel mounted to the engine.

Remove the starter motor and measure with a vernier caliper to the starter ring gear from the starter mounting surface. This is the surface that is exposed when the starter motor is removed. It faces aft when installed in the car. The ring gear is the gear on the outside edge of the flywheel the starter motor gear turns to turn the engine over. I have a different trans and need to be certain the depth of my ring gear is close to standard so I am able to use a standard starter motor.

Thanks for your help,


Erik
