the starter on my '83 elky (305) needs to be changed. i have a '79 elky (267) with a good starter and i also have a good starter from a 350 motor. according to autozone.com,the part numbers are different between the three. i thought all small block starters were identical?

The starter from the 350 should work just fine...

you may have to swap front nose cones. but the barrel and solinoid should be the same

The v8 starters should be about the same. Anyway will work.

well heres an update. i looked at the one for the 350 and the bolt holes were lined up differently so i just coughed up the cash for a remanufactured one.
