As above I need a Zetec to type 9 starter motor
Iwas going to use the pinto starter with a 14mm spacer but the back of the starter fouls one of the engine mount holes on the sump.
By the way it's a 1.8 black top using 1.8 flywheel
2L DOHC is the one you need.
Take a look in my archive for pics of both blacktop and silvertop sumps modded for rwd starters.
If you want a new motor, QX Components QS1221 is about the slimmest motor you'll find.
Pete am I right in thinking that its a pinto starter on the black top in your pics?
