just a word of caution but this starter will not fit between the block and headmen headers,not sure on the other brands.
Big Block or Small with fitment issue? Mine fit on 383 w/ mini starter.

my 440source mini starter fit with Hedman 78030's on a 451 (lowdeck), but not without a bit of massaging of one tube with a ball peen hammer and a torch
YEP ^^^^^^^^^^^
I would like to spring for another set but figure what's the point if I have to beat them into submission.

Because they cost one-fifth as much as the "perfect fit" types, which STILL sometimes require a bit of persuasion!

I just went through this on my 68 Coronet 383 with headman elite headers. I bought a starter for a 94 Dakota 318 and it wouldn't fit. The later model V8 starter (I checked a 2002 dakota V8) has a shorter motor then the earlier one. I probably could have fit the later starter. My local Auto store had them for $129 plus core. The Earlier unit was only $80 plus core. I ended up putting the original back in for now. I'm eventually going with a late model 6.1 based stroker so this is only a temporary setup for me and I decided to save the cash now.
