Take a look at a Arco 5376 on Marine Engine… it has an 11 tooth drive gear. I just put one on a 1959 35 Golden Jubilee. The only difference was, it was physically shorter than the original. On motors with a lower starter support bracket, you will need to fabricate a bushing to make up the difference between the starter housing and the lower support bracket. Very easy to do. Otherwise, it bolts right up. I’ve used Arco for 25 yrs. now, seems to be good stuff.
