Flywheel

Can someone identify and provide the application of a flywheel with the casting number "14091559N". It bolts up to a late model Chevy crankshaft with a one piece rear main seal. This FW has the ring gear teeth for the starter on the transmission side rather than the engine side. TIA, John.

I was able to remove the ring gear from the flywheel by gently tapping it off with a soft punch and a 2# hammer. I reassembled it by heating the ring gear in my wife's oven at 400 Degrees for a couple of hours while I took her out to dinner - at the same time, I placed the flywheel in the freezer for the same period of time. After dinner, I gently dropped the ring onto the correct side of the flywheel - it dropped right on down to the sholder and immediately shrunk to fit tightly on the flywheel. Looks like a successful exercise.
John.
