Starters???

OK, on my 71 340 4 speed Demon what starter do I need? I had no starter for it so I called NAPA and they sent me a big ol 3 bolt direct drive starter with a cast iron nose. I thought the standard Mopar 2 bolt gear reduction aluminum nosed starter was the right one, any ideas??

Napa sold you the wrong starter, or it was boxed wrong. I highly recommend you take it back and accidently throw it at the computer.

All gear drive starters fit the same. There are different torque/hp levels over the years, but they all fit and crank the engines they were meant to fit.

ANY traditional Mopar engine with headers should accept either a stock gear drive Mopar starter (what do you think we did in the 60's and 70's??) or a mini, but a mini is a better way to go.
