Oh the starter, could you flip the starter? Would that work?

I just know the tranny depth is correct and that the bus runs a type4 flywheel.

All buses came with the same Bosch SR17X starter that the 914 came with.

Nah - can't flip it. Then it hits the gearbox.

The tranny is mounted using a Kennedy Engineering adaptor plate, and flywheel.

I can't find the starter on Kustom 1's website - do I need to call for it???

How much was the adapter plate? Or could you do a list of all the things you bought and pricing? (if you want to tell me that is..)

Thanks

Hmmm... apparently there is a chevy part that will fit....

http://www.pors-chev.com/pipermail/pors-ch...ber/002033.html

IMI101? Sound familiar - might be able to get one at the gotelli speed shop in South San Fran.

I read the text on the link to the pors-chev. does the 1996 chevrolet starter rotate the correct way? I know the VW Bus starter will work. I was just curious about the chevy one mentioned. The guy that posted the message stated it worked for him, but he didn't say what he installed it in. If it works the price is great and it's gear reduction. (add core charge)

BTW it probably won't clear your turbo, you'll still need the one from Kustom 1.

With the starter so close to a potentially red hot turbo is there a concern that it will get heat damaged? If so what can be done to protect the starter? Heat sheild? Wrap it in heat resistant cloth?

Don't think you will find any chevy starter to work on a 901/915/930 gearbox. The guy that posted about the chevy starter in the thread has a 944 V8 conversion which does take a chevy starter and flywheel, bellhousing.

I agree with the possilbe heat soak issue with the LH turbo.

Could you flip the direction of the exhaust headers - so the turbos are on te front? probably would be a mess with snaking the exhaust back around, but mabye not??

Or even flipping the drivers side only and have the exhaust then snake around the front (or below) the engine and down the passenger side - to then do a 2-1 off the passenger turbo?

The Air to water IC is good! looks like an early 90's legacy/liberty JDM engine? The Air to water I/Cs were also on the 2.2 turbo legacy for the US market 91-93?

Fiid,

I'll attach a few pics of a IMI starter mounted to my 901. Might be of some use in determining clearance.

Bob,
Are you limited to flipping only 180 degrees?

I remembered having to change my starter out last year and found this pic. Starter on left is a 101 and the markings are clear. The one on right was the replacement sent to me after supplier thought maybe my compression was a little too high or with such a new motor, I needed more power. Can't make the numbers out on this one and I don't have the paperwork (sorry). I'm sure Brad can identify these.

BTW, the original starter was tested and found to be bad. It worked fine for about 4 months and then ended up not turning my motor after it got hot.

John

Forgot to add the purpose of last pic. The unit on left has a smaller motor attached as compared to replacement.

The IMI on the right appears to have 4 different "clocking" positions. You can see the different bolt holes for the motor on the face plate.

It will need a heat shield.. but I wouldnt be too concerned about this.

So I can dial it around until the two bodies are vertical?? I think that would be the only way.

I'll call and order it Monday, unless they are open tomorrow.
