Mini Starters on a Slant Six

Craigcharlesjohnson said

I know this is an old post, but I just want to thank Slantsixdan for posting this and saving me the frustration and issues of trying to fit a starter like the 1991 318 the other person bought, on my 1964 Canadian Valiant!
With the popularity of slant sixes and the time that had passed I searched to see if there was now a proper mini-starter for our early model Canadian slant sixes. I finally found one from a shop in Australia. Link below.

Again, a big thank you to Slantsixdan for sharing his knowledge here to the community!

Update to this post. Do not buy the Mini-starter from this place! It is junk and I won’t use it.
It would not disengage from the flywheel. They said shim it. We shimmed it and it still didnt work (awful sound!) they said shim it up to 8mm! Umm no thanks. To me if you have to shim something that much, there was zero care into putting this together. And their 100% satisfaction guarantee is nonexistent! They will not let me return it. ****’s

I’m still very thankful to Slantsixdan on all the knowledge he shared here!
And it looks like he is still correct in saying nobody makes a mini-starter to replace the direct drive starter. So my search continues.
