Just blew out my starter tonight and was wondering is it normally a 130 TOOTH for a 400 block or ??

I run a standard Dodge V-8 mini-starter. Same one for 5 years. 15-1, 32 degrees full timing

I've got the same starter as these guys....Autozone Dakota 5.2L (318) "mini" starter with only VERY MINOR modification to the wire connections to ensure block clearance. The engine spins MUCH faster/easier.

And to answer your actual question: I can't remember how many teeth are on the starter gear, but Chrysler used only one starter for EVERYTHING.....6 cyl, 273, 318, 340, 360, 361, 383, 400, 440, Hemi..... except I think like 2 yrs. of race hemi or something like that.

Yeah I did the same thing
I shortened the "main threaded lug/stud"
so it would clear the block, easy peasy !!
I've had the starter some ten years now...

Starter is now installed pain in the butt. In the process of preparing for more 9 second runs I removed my TTI headers and wraped them to prevent any heat damage to my soon to arrive DRE Kevlar Diaper. Sharing a pic with you guys.
