Can a starter out of a 93 5.0 automatic be used in a 89 manual 5.0?

yes or no?

Yes it can but you need to make a jumper wire from the big lug (the main power wire) to the little lug on the solenoid on the starter itself. You can wire it like the factory if you want but that works perfectly fine too.

PM Mjr, he is the one that gave me the idea. If you were to look at it you would realize how simple it is.

It will change how things are wired on the solenoid a little is all.
