Is this the correct starter?

Ok. I dug up some older post and from what I saw/read, this starter motor would be an N/A starter but was puller from an 87 TII. I just wanted to double check and make sure, because one post I read stated something about the teeth, and another member stated they're interchangeable, which I doubt.

Here are pics:




Let me know if you guys need more pics!

Like Ted said, a turbo starter won't fit a na and a na won't fit a turbo. The attach bolt pattern is waaay different.

I'd say turbo looking at the starter solenoid. On a non turbo that solenoid is offset close to one of the ears. On the turbo in my hand, it's located more centered, like yours.

youch, hailers is right, the solenoid is on top for the n/a, unlike the pics which shows it on the bottom.
