[alfa] Starter questions

[Jon Pike <jhpike@xxxxxxx>]

Wondering if anyone out there has a parts book, or info on a part number 
for a starter drive?

Situation is,  my earlier rebuilt engine has the 130 tooth ring gear.  
The later, 77 starter is assumably for the 131 tooth gear. 
I have been told by Those Who (should) Know,  that either way is a 
problem if you don't match up, though I would guess going from the 
smaller diameter starter (for the bigger 131 gear) might be less of a 
problem than going the other way. 
I'm told the latest "gear reduction" starters fit well on the old 130 
tooth gears.

Now,  I was at a car show this weekend,  and a guy had a huge pile of 
recambi originale,  but couldn't tell me about the starter gear drive I 
bought for $5..  hoping it might be the different size as well as hoping 
that they are exchangeable..

Can anyone tell me about this part,  probably Bosch, though might be an 
Alfa number?
1 006 209 506   Also has 265 away from the first number, probably a 
manuf code, and "Made in Germany" on the part.  It has nine teeth.

Anything that anyone else can shed on my situation,  I'd appriciate 
it..  Or, got a late starter to sell/trade for an earlier one?

Thanks..
