Technical C4 w/ 170 assistance needed.

Hello and thank you in advance.

I am in the finishing stages of a Dagenham to C4 swap on a 1964 Falcon. I'm running a 170 as well. My question is what starter is needed for this combo?

The one I currently have is a 3 bolt off the Dagenham that will mount to the c4, but I have heard rumors of nose cone issues. Does the automatic need a longer or shorter cone? One thread had mentioned used a 65 automatic 6cyl starter, but they are all for 200's. Typical internet that too much info can sometimes be more confusing than helpful.

Any advice?

Thank You very much.

 

Starter has nothing to do with the engine. It's all about the transmission/flexplate/torque converter. Get a starter to match the year of C4.
