[TR] TR3A flywheel bolt on ring gear

[terryrs@comcast.net]

Question:  were there different gear ratios on the ring gear?  Reason I ask, 
while I had the OD tranny out, I replaced the flywheel with a freshly machined 
one.  It had a somewhat better condition ring gear already bolted on.  I don't 
know the year of production of the replacement flywheel.  Bolted the same 
starter back in, but when I try to start the engine, the starter clicks and 
whirrs, but doesn't engage. Jumped it with a good battery, seems to be a strong 
electrical current going in.  Engine turns freely by hand even with the spark 
plugs still in.

Thoughts?

New Hampshire where in a two day period it went from minus 20 degrees to in the 
50's.  Gotta love New England!
