Thanks Vic! Great info.
Depending on the year of the engine , if it is a 1962 and back it will use the style shown in the picture , the mini starter or later ones will not work with the pre 1962 polys due to the extended crankshaft , they do make a mini starter for the earlier engines but its not the one for the newer LA engines and the two bolt was also available in a 12 volt after 1955 when the 1956 cars went to 12 volt , cool project have to share the pics when done , Vic http://hothemiheads.com/transmission_adapters/starter_replacement.html | Chrysler Hemi Engine.

Thanks Bill!
I appreciate the validation. I had suggested a mini starter but apparently the goal for this project is as near 100% original as possible.
All the best.
A "regular" LA / A (Poly) or modern 2 bolt mini starter should work, but the marine application may throw that out the window. The starter and mounting flange on the bellhousing look nothing like any automotive 318 LA or Poly that I've ever seen.
Bill M 65 Coronet 'vert, 392 Poly Stroker Hi all,
A bit off topic for this group, but was wondering if anyone here at experience with the 318 Poly and starters. Apparently there was a 3-bolt and a 2-bolt version? Are they interchangeable?
My engine builder is working on a super rare 318 Poly Marine for a Italian boat project (the one that James Bond drove in Venice). The bell housing is a 2-bolt but the starter he has is a 3-bolt. The 2-bolt was apparently 6v only? Anyways, he is trying to use a newer starter because he needs 12v and the starter was reversed for the 318 Poly Marine application.
The starter seems to be grinding somewhere on the flex plate or flywheel. Maybe a spacer is needed? Listening to that old direct-drive starter, the starter itself sounds ok but smells like it is under stress so I’m thinking it is binding up possibly.
Thought I’d throw this out here to see if anyone has any ideas on what to look for.
(BTW yes, the engine builder machine his own header adapter plate…)
Thanks, Conrad
