Funny encounter when I spent six-weeks in NYC for a new job training stint in the late ‘70’s. Local guy asked me where I was from. Said Wisconsin – he had the look of confusion saying is that out near California? Lol, replied yeah, it’s in that direction from here…somewhat.

 

[65hemi]

Haha, I get the same confused look when I’m in California in March. I’m the only guy in shorts and t shirt so I’m the northerner and I must be from Wisconsin. Yeah, that general direction.

Yea, it's getting colder and colder every day. I was wanting to ask how one creates a new thread as well as ask a question about what newer Mopar mini starter will fit my 69 B. I have read many comments that a 1993 Dodge Dakota starter for a 318 (5.2 L) starter will fit with TTI step headers. I bought one and when my cousin installed the starter the header would not go back on because the starter was out too far. I read on another Forum that there is even a smaller starter for a 2005 to 2008 Ram 5.7 standard transmission however no further comments were made from anybody who installed one on a 440 with TTI headers and that includes the person who brought up the 2005 to 2008 starter. I am trying to find out an alternate starter application without having to buy an expensive aftermarket mini starter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve used the mini starter from 440Source.
One on a 440 with 2” Hooker headers and one on a hemi with 2 1/8” TTI. Both fit but snug.

Had to install a mini when putting TTI’s on my ’63. Was told a mopar min-van starter was all that’s needed. Found tons of them on flea-bay for cheap getting one and been in since. This was a few years back, so memory is not stellar..

I just got a text from my cousin after he got back from a local parts store and he told me a 5.7 Hemi starter is 2 inches shorter than the Dakota starter however not sure how the gears will mesh when you engage the starter. He didn't mention if the 5.7 Hemi starter was also smaller in diameter as that was his initial problem of the Dakota starter sticking out too far and he couldn't get the header back on. I am hoping this 5.7 Hemi starter is high torque in addition to being smaller.
