xwagon 168 Posted August 11, 2015 like the title says, are v8 ford starters the same?? have been looking at starters for both my 351c and the 460BB, the 460 is the main one as I need a adjustable one to try to clear the RRS steering rack, and these type of starters seem to state they fit all models including the Windsor?? I know the starter I got with my 351c is a auto one that has a spacer to more it out to suit the toploader bell housing. does anybody know?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirkWhyXF 1,533 Posted August 11, 2015 The gear reduction starter I got for for my 5.0 Windsor is the same as for a 351c. Not sure if that helps you or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
