Does anyone know what the Lucas part number is for the starter and solenoid? My solenoid is definitely shot, and I am not too sure about the starter. A friend of mine with an MG Midget actually found rebuilt Lucas starters at the local auto part but I don't know which one I am asking for. The website for the Indian company still manufacturing these starters has a couple that look right, but has no cross reference information. 

Alternately, does anyone have experience with one of the several gear reduction units available? I have found several vendors below $200, which I don't think is too much more than a replacement for the Lucas.

Thanks - Andrew
