Starter fitting for my Cj7, GM 307 enginge

[znm3]

Hi,

I have a problem with with finding the right starter to fit my motor. It is a GM 307 engine, it has 11 inch bell housing, with I believe to be a less than 11 inch fly feel. The mounting holes are offset and the holes are directly in the block. The only things I can ever find are related to a 69 Chevy pickup, but they dont fit, and I have also tried 69 Chevy Camaro starters because the same bellhousing and clutch plates fit them, but again none seem to fit. Please help!!!!!! Please message me with any advice to my problem

Seems to me that my '70 Chevelle had the same starter that you are looking for. It had a 307 engine as well. I don't think its any different than any other Chevy of that era, tho.
What year is your engine?

In all honesty, I am not positive but when I entered the engine block number it seemed to be in the 68 -70 year models, I pulled the motor out of a buddies willys, so I aint too sure.

By the way it is actually an 11 inch bell housing, sorry my mistake.

Yes a 68 model year Chevy 307 will fit...

I must say, never heard a 307 in a Cj. I had one in one of my 68 cars and boy was it a great engine. Where did you get it and how do you like it???

Haha,

By the way a 68 what? Not gonna lie, the last time i heard it running or saw it running was in my buddys jeep. But I got a sweet deal on the engine, and it did run very well. I hope to get this starter situation figured out soon so that I can get some other little deals rollin on this project.
