Hi Ron, both ring gear ODs are the same for early and late TD flywheel and
this is approx 12 1/8".
Bore for the early is approx 10 3/8" as you say and both have 120 teeth.
Bore for the late is approx. 10 3/4".
Sounds like Moss supplied an early ring gear as ordered.
I assume of course that you have the original TD flywheel and your old TD
ring gear is correct.
However, I'll bet you have a TC ring gear on the flywheel, which has an ID
of 10 3/8" and an OD of approx. 11 7/8" but has only 93 teeth. The TD
starter will not work on the TC ring gear.
Do you have a TC starter on the car? Larger in diameter than the TD unit
and with 10 teeth?.
Regards, Bob
Bob
