I think I will mail Bob H. then to see if he has a good starter
that can be rebuild in the States. Here in the Netherlands it is almost
kind of starter motor.
That starter isn't available new. You should either have yours
rebuilt, or buy an extra and have that one done. You may be able to get
a good used one from Imperial Heaven. I have been very satsified with
my dealings with them.

Thanks for the information! Do you know a source where I can obtain a
direct drive starter then for a 1960 engine/torqueflite?  Thanks,Â

Gear reduction starters don't fit 1960 unless the car has beenÂ
retro-fitted with the '62 or newer style engine and transmission. Â

@Gary and Dave: is this the correct starter for the "old" RB seriesÂ
engines 59-62) ? I am also looking for a 1960 starter, and 440source
doesn't have them for the old RB bigblock engines.  Thanks,Â

The universal number is Lester 3257-1.5 HP, or 3258-1.8 HP, both areÂ
gear reduction starters. Dave  -------------- Original message

You can buy the high torque starter from Napa just be asking for a
high torque starter. It is about 1/2" shorter that the normal starter.
If you
can not find one let me know and I can pick one up.Â
