Default Savvy X Clutch Bell - How Many Teeth?

For days, I've been searching posts trying to learn about clutch bells and sprockets. I'm trying to build a spare parts pool for the Savage X I'm picking up in a couple days when the LHS gets another stock. I can't find any info about how many teeth are on the stock clutch bell and sprocket. I see there are a bunch of options available, but I don't know which one to get.

What size is the stock bell?
What size is the stock sprocket?
What is the advantage of going with a smaller number of teeth?
What is the advantage of going with a higher number of teeth?

If it's anything like my Honda 250R, the smaller the gear, the better low-end. How does that apply here?

If anyone can school me on this, I'd much appreciate it.

Thx
~MIKE

im not sure wut the sizes are now but yes a lower cluth bell (gear off engine) will get u more bottom end power/torque rather than speed & the spur gear witch is off the transfer case, the higher the moere torque/power rather than speed, and a truck isnt made for speed rather than acar so enlessu race ud prolly want a lower gear setting. so i hope this works and my guess is that the tru8ck will have a 15 clut5h bell ( of the engine) and a 49 of the transfer case

hope this helps
