47-55.1 Stomp starter removed

[TX3100Guy]

Tonight I made a judgment call and decided to remove the stomp starter in favor of a gear reduction model, assuming my flywheel has the correct number of teeth. I made the decision partly based on the fact that with the new American Auto Wire wiring harness that I acquired, it has the provision for a solenoid wire and an ignition switch that also supports it. Also, I've installed a gear reduction starter in another car and love how quickly the engine kicks to life.

The plan tomorrow is to remove the dust cover, clean up the flywheel, count the teeth and use the flywheel to assist me in finding TDC. If the number of teeth is correct, then I will order the new starter, if not, then I'll be reinstalling the lead paper weight we call a starter.

The question is, has anyone found a grommet or filler panel to cover up the hole in the floor with the removal of the stomp starter?
