started to stip the engine 2ltr pinto ready to slip in my mac#1 zr and noticed it is less a starter motor, the ? is guys i have a starter off 1.8 cvh and wondering if the beastie will fit or is it a trip to the local scrappy

It might fit, but from my experience with Ford starters it probably won't.

I have an unused reconditionedlucas pre engaged type starter for pinto if you need one, going pretty cheap.
