This is very confusing , he says he has a 130 tooth wheel but the bell is only 13 3/4 , so it's not an 11" bell as that is 15 3/4 , and he says the starter gear is hitting the flywheel .

Mike what kind of starter is it, conventional or mini ? There is only so many starters that will physically bolt on there and the hemi direct drive is not one of them, so any one that should bolt on there should work , it's the same basic starter , you could take a starter from a /6 and bolt it on a 440-6pk and it will fit and turn the engine over.
