Auto vs. Manual Starters

Do the manual cars have different starters than the automatics? I just switched from ADO to 5 spd and thought I'd ask before I mess up the teeth on the flywheel :eek: if they are different. Also, does anyone know the bolt size for the two bolts that connect the starter to the trannny?

Thanks
 
They are the same. I have a starter from a 350 cu inch F-250 on my 89 sc right now. when you do put your starter on make sure to work from top to bottom tighten the top bolt first then the bottom. so you get a good seat with flywheel.
 
i swapped from auto to stick too and used the same starter. they used to be different in the 70s - when they quit doing it or if they still do it in certain applications i dont know
