Anyone got a Bosch Starter for a 3.9 lying around that they want to get ride of? would be great if it works to.

check out the old commadore starters. I took mine to the wreckers looking for a solenoid for it, and the guy went and got a commadore one that was nearly identical. $20 for the whole thing!
