18hp Vanguard W/horiz. shaft, ring gear & starter pinion question.. HELP PLEASE!
18hp Vanguard ser#359447 Mod#1075-A15848..& maybe a #6 on the end. Engine in an '03 EZGO cart. I need to replace aluminum ring gear & nylon pinion gear on starter with STEEL. The engine has an aftermarket cam with no compression release. I have bigger solenoid/battery/wires and the engine spins on the starter GREAT but strips the nylon starter pinion gear VERY OFTEN  . 1 of the starter bolts is AWFUL to access. Can I replace gear ring and starter? ... think I'm getting too old for this stuff. Thanks in advance for your help.
