I've been researching this topic to death. My starter is on it's way out and I want to upgrade. Looking for a quick swap. My car is a 305 TBI. Is it advisable to get the earlier 93-94 or later 95-97 LT1 starter. So much conflicting info just not sure. Do I need new bolts, keep stock etc etc.

Thanks!

 

This may or may not help but I put an Lt1 corvette starter on my 88,I got it used from ebay and I love it.It sounds like an older chrysler starter.
It looks like the 93-94 is 1.4 Kw and 95-97 is 1.7 Kw and I think the bolts are the same length.

 

Alittle information on the bolts

Looks like with the vette starter you don’t need longer bolts but it might depend on the block.

 

Yeah, I've considered the Vette unit as well but it does cost more. For my 180 hp TBI I think the fbody one will do the trick lol. I just really dont know which one to get.
