There's got to be a way to adapt a mini starter to a Poly or LA engine and bellhousing. I'm in the middle of this battle right now with my LA, working with a guy who rebuilds starters. If we come up with something, I'll certainly pass it on. But for now it looks like a 12V WM300 starter is in my near future.
As for marketing these adapter parts, there *is* a market for them, but there's not much money in it right now, and may never be for our Dodges. There aren't as many Dodges out there as F*** or Ch***, and only a small percent of those Dodges are Power Wagons. But as you say, there are more reasons to do something than just money.
No judgement here on Ray. He did a lot of good for the hobby, and has moved on. My best wishes to him.
