Hey guys just looking for some insite on what the interchangability is between all ls starters. Will all ls based starters interchange or are there different configurations through out the years?
Looking for the interchange info for:
4.8
5.3
6.0
ls1
ls2
ls7
6.2?

Any help would be great and thanks guys.

I know some of the truck motors use small starters like the f-bodies and some use larger starters, but it doesn't seem to matter what the year model is. I have seen 2 different 2001 5.3 trucks one with the small and one with the larger starter, other than the size there are no differences(same bolt pattern and flywheel). The starters on 4.8,5.3,6.0,LS1 are interchangeable auto or manual trans doesn't matter. I don't know about LS2 or LS7 for sure because I have no experience w/ them personally, but I have never heard of anyone needing to change the starter when they buy a LS2 stroker. So, I would say they are all the same.
