x2. Is it hard up against the block? Take it out, if it's been ground down, then it's definitely a 1.3. |

Looks like a 1.3 to me. Alien could you take a pic of yours when you take it out. I need a pic of a ground down 1.3 to fit a 1.6. |

Thats a 1.3 starter. Heres a pic of the two side by side. The 1.6 narrow body starter is on the right:

he's out of stock on the smaller reduction style ones =( hoping they will come in tuesday in time for me to get one put in, as i like the idea of one that bolts in rather than one thats been ground like all hell to make fit =P |

thanks man, but i'll just get sean to grind me a fresh one if they don't have the reduction one in time.... joys of a daily driver is it needs to start every morning, lunch and arvo on demand =) haha this roll starting off the starter motor is super-gay, and bad for my ring gear if i hold the key too long =P |

not yet - but will do... i also have a spare solenoid thanks to crewsy, so will most likely replace that anyway, as it gets moisture in it in winter. has anyone found a way to reliably seal them up? |

How to grind a 1.3 starter to fit 1.6: Step 1: Grind 
Step 2: Grind some more 
Step 3: Better grind it one more time 
Step 4: Admire grinding skills 
Step 5: Smooth it out a bit 
Step 6: Rust protection 
To fit: Disconnect battery, Remove airbox, remove original starter, put new starter in, re-fit airbox, re-connect battery... |

Thanks for the pics Alien. ( I was LTM21 whoops) Thats what I thought you would have to do. Grind right along the body of it. Any chance this goin into "Good Tech" simple but pics paint a thousand words. |

You dont have to always grind along the whole starter. Sometimes you only need gring it a little, bolt it up and see if you can slide a piece of paper behind it without it getting caught. In Aliens case having all the injection gear in the way it was easier to do the whole lot and be sure that the starter does not foul the block. As a reference G16A blocks are not as bolky near the starter (but they crack blocks more comonly) G16B blocks require more grinding as suzuki added a little more alloy and webbing to the block to try rectify some of ther issues of cracking blocks |

Did you have any trouble with the teeth not lining up? I'm about to do this and my mate tryed twice but then he started it and just shredded the fly wheel. This happened twice with the fat Sierra starter and then he got a long body one and had no trouble (Carby job) any tip when fitting it? |
