No question is too dumb, from a humble person such as yourself.
A catalogue shows different starters for SBC & LS1.
In any event, you may proceed with increasing your post count!

The LS starter is different. Part number wise, for example, from Powermaster is 9500 for a SBC, and 9510 for an LS. Feel free to pm for any questions!

Don't think you are going to get much smaller of a starter than a stocker.

Yep, LS has a different mount and different number of teeth.
