I just now looked it up in the parts manual for that engine on marine diesel.com. According to that document there are 159 teeth on the flywheel. See attached. This is for the marine engine. The document is called "Cummins - 6BTA 5.9 - Parts Catalog (B250 Inline) - Engine Configuration: D403028MX02 (CPL 1322) - Bulletin No. 3884392-00 3/91".

Well worth the effort and modest expense IMHO. And, as mentioned previously, I have no interest in that web site other then being a satisfied user as well as an occasional contributor (in a very distant past I was a naval as well as maritime grease monkey).
