How can you tell a Vette starter from a Camaro one?

Is it smaller? Got one from parts store the other day that was quite a bit smaller, even though it was the same part number, and it works great.....

I still feel confident in Nick's work and would recommend him. His oppertunity is turn around time.

If indeed the hard starting is from extra torque required to turn engine over, (ultra high compression notwithstanding) I couldn't care less what the builder stated. Common sense tells me, somethin's wrong that needs to be addressed. Ignoring it, won't make it go away!

Well I think there might be some pics online someplace...maybe on LT1vsLT4 or something like that. I know I saw the difference between the 2. Maybe the little mini starter was only on the LT4 cars. Either way the little Vette starters are just pain tiny, also the motor is above the silinoid instead of the other way around.
