first you need to establish if the engine is internal or external ballance, if its a 383 or larger its probably external. most aftermarket starters work with both 153 and 168 flexplates/flywheels but you'd need to check. try www.summitracing.com it usual has a good compatability list for all the products they sell.

I assume this is associated with the starter problem.
The 'ring gear' (the bit with the teeth on it) is also replaceable without having to replace the whole flywheel. Again you can buy this from the factory. I'm not sure but this may actually be a standard Porsche part.
