Starter Question

I am switching from the cast iron bell housing to the aluminum type bell housing. What is the part number for the starter that goes with aluminum bell housings?

Thanks

Ben

Should be the same starter. It bolts to the engine not the bell.

The trucks ran a 168 tooth flywheel/flex plate(14" dia). The starter that fits the auto trans apps, or alum bell stick , will have a staggered boltpattern. If you by chance you have the smaller flywheel(153 t, 12 3/4"dia) the starter has a straight across pattern,& both starters bolt to the block as posted. If the truck starter that you have is good, you can change the end housing & bolt it to your block......arent Chevs great! i cant help on part #, but good luck......crazyL

Thanks for the info. I am going with a T56 6 speed once I get all the detailed problems worked out. I just wonder what else I am going to have to change to make this work.
