Oh, that's good to know about O'Reilly and AutoZone. I poked around online to see if I could find dimensions, but with no success so far, so I was thinking the same thing - if O'Reilly can't tell me the dimensions (they can on many parts), then I'll probably order one and see if it fits.
There's also a 12 volt unit, which would be better, since my truck has been converted. There's even another unit that's 6 volts, and I'm not sure of the difference between it and the first one. I found all this on the Wilson electric website. One starter is listed as an MCL type, another as MCH, and another as MDG-MDF.
I'll call O'Reilly to see what they can tell me about those various starters, and if that doesn't work, I may try calling Wilson. Then if all else fails, I'll buy one. That is, if I decide not to make a spacer to move the filter out from the block, which would be a lot cheaper, but might look odd.
By the way, I hope the pricing for these Wilson starters is a sign of good quality.
