[DeTomaso] Starter Replacement Options

[Rob Dumoulin]

My '71 has been at a shop forever it seems.  Now the starter is acting up
and has to be tapped with a hammer to kick over.  Firewall solenoid still
clicking fine. I leave the country tomorrow and that makes it difficult to
track this down this week. I am hoping somebody can give me enough
information to buy and have it shipped from Jegs or Summitt today.

Does a '71 have the 164-tooth flywheel?  Does that change what I need to
ask for?
Is there a Mustang year and model I need to reference to get the right one?

I was looking through the archives and came across a few options:

A Powermaster:

and an IMI
