they are all "mini" now, not sure why you ask but if you are wanting one for an older engine (A engine, RB, etc..) then those newer ones won't fit. I have a 2001 Durango starter that would not fit my 360/727 Challenger. the snout is different.

It seems there are 2 versions of the LA mini starter snout, one has a slightly longer bendix gear throw. Google it and the website will come up. There are also 3 different torque ratings. Not a one size fits all any more.

Stick with the 3.9/5.3/5.9 starters. Have yet to see a 1990 and newer 3.9/5.2/5.9 mini starter that didn't work on the LA engines. Yes there are some slight sizing/styling changes but they still bolt in and work fine.
