I have a 98 ls1/a4 and I'm going to be doing a 6.2 l92/m6 swap, I have the startor out of the l92 which came out of a 08 caddy escalade.
Wondering if I need to use the startor out of my ls1 or will the one out the l92 work? I tried the l92 on the ls1 and vise versa and they bolt up. The one out the l92 is a little different design, had a bigger opening for theeth.
Was considering selling it and the alternator out the caddy, but thinking about holding on to the startor. The alt from the 6.2 is a 2 bolt design and is alot bigger then the fbody which has 3 bolts.

I am doing the exact same thing to my RX7. The L92 starter bolted right up and as far as I know they both have the same teeth count. Is there a reason why the L92 starter won't work with the T56 and the LS7 flywheel?

Idk, I don't see an issue, if the a4 and m6 starter are the same then I think this starter will work. I think it might just be stronger than the fbody starter, looks alot more sturdy. But I'll be testing it out on a stock t56 flywheel and clutch, then switch to an ls2 flywheel with ls7 clutch. I emailed pics of the two starters to "the bandit" hasn't posted them yet. Anyone want to post them for me? I can email you pics, I'm using my phone or else I'd do it.
