I have a good starter for that car if its a hydro transmission. No mini starters made for that set up besides the stock hydro starter is a rock solid unit..

Yes, it is. If everything is fine with it I am going to leave it and cruise it. If the engine or trans is bad I am going to swap to a mild 400 and 4-spd. I really hate automatics, I stockpile 4-spds so I can swap all my cars.
