305 starter motor

Hi to all from Australia.
1984 Berlinetta 305 (carby)
I need a new starter motor and my question is........

are they the same starter motors for 307, 327, 350 etc....?
Theres not much info here in Oz about berlinettas (think there is only 3 or 4 in the country) so Im hoping another motor size will fit..
Cheers to all

Matt

Not quite universal, a starter from other applications could be for the larger diameter flywheel.
