starter motor info

I am after a starter motor for an adaptor plate I have I believe it to be a ford one but it is 2 bolt and I can see the marks where it has been fitted and have taken the sizes are there any websites that has sizes on so I can compare and identify the starter I need.
Thanks Matty

If it is the standard Lucas bolt inertia mounting they came in 2 common sizes the smaller was used on smaller engines BMC A series Hillman Imp Ford Anglia, Mk1 Cortina.. The larger was used on mid sized engines. Hillman Hunter & Avenger, BMC B series.

Ford switched to 3 bolt mounting on the Cortina about 1966 because the design on the 2 bolt mounting on the Ford gearbox didn't locate the starter accurately enough to prevent jamming.

Ha ha, tell me about it and we finished up buggering about with 8, 9, 10 and even 11 toothed pinions to try to sort the problem, However the 2 bolt and 3 bolt will fit the same bell housing.....

Right, here we go. I have examined 2 starter motors, one 2 bolt and one 3 bolt, Both are M 35 G and the number on the box of the 2 bolt one is LRS 102. The spigots are the same size...I have tried both starter motors onto a bell housing and they both fit...............Makem sure that whatever you fit that the tooth are pointing the right way as a pre engaged will have the lead on the flywheel teeth on the other side....
