Still don't know, but you can figure out which starter you need fairly
easily. If you have the original starter removed, check the business
end - if it has a shroud, like a nose cone with a cutout where you can
see the starter gear gear, then it is an early starter. If there is
just an exposed shaft the the gear rides on, it is a late starter. If
you can see the flywheel, or feel it, check for the direction of the
bevel on the teeth of the ring gear. If the bevel faces the front of the
car, towards the engine, it needs an early starter. If the bevel is on
the rear edge, then you need a late starter. Also, check to see how the
ring gear is attached to the flywheel, if it is a friction fit, then it
is an early starter, if it is bolted on, then it's a late version.
Hope that's clear - and helpful,
Bob
