Hello, this may be well known, but I thought I would post it anyway. This applies to small block v-8 model's. The 88-94 chevy/GMC still used the same large starter that had used since the early 70's, well if you are looking to upgrade to the 95-98's smaller but more powerful gear reduction starter or needing a replacement starter for your 95-98 chevy/gmc, you can use the starter from a 99 up nbs with a 4.3. The NBS starter's for LS ie v8 motor's will not work they are different, anyway back to my point. The 4.3 starter from a NBS is identical to the one used on the 95-98 v-8, I frequently purchase these from local salvage yard for around $30, and usually I can find one with 25-30K miles, they are still like new, and if you have had to buy one of these new you know they are not cheap, so this gives a nice alternative, and the salvage yards here are full of these NBS truck's with 4.3's. So I always swap the older style out for these now, because I can get them so cheap, and they start faster and are smaller and lighter and less prone to heat soak.
