    I think I used a '56 Olds starter on mine. I welded a passenger side starter mount on the bellhousing to make room for my 'Vair steering gear. I used a Hydramatic tranny with a Drag Machine adaptor/flywheel sold thru B&M back in the day. Did this in about '67 so memory isn't very clear ( about anything)!tooth pitch and make it work.

    Find one with the right tooth pitch and make it work.
