Looking at replacing the starter in my 84 that has an 86 5.0 engine. Wanting to go with the smaller starter that was put on the 92-93 5.0 Mustangs. Is this the proper starter? $50 and free shipping is hard to beat.

My other way to go is a 20% discount on this starter from Advance Auto. It will come to $68 plus tax.

i dont see any difference but ive` never owned any of those year cars .. kennyg should be able to tell you ..

 

Yep, the first certainly does look exactly as the second one. At least the pictures look the same. I am wondering how it can be sold for $50, free shipping, and no core. :-)

 

My guess is in about 3 months you will be wondering why you wasted $50 on it.
