Stock Starter VS Mini Starter
I just have a quick question. A while ago I was having exhaust put on my car but the guy called me and told me that I needed a different starter so that the headers would fit. Now I have this starter that I am trying to sell but I do not know if its a mini starter or a regular starter. Does anyone know the difference in size or looks? Thanks alot.

RE: Stock Starter VS Mini Starter
Regular starters don't have a solenoid on the starter the body of the starter comes back from the nose cone at about the same size. They also tend to be longer than mini starters.
I can't imagine an aftermarket mini starter that your mechanic installed on your car could be much smaller than the one you already had.
