1992 Isnander 180 starter ase J1171

[Rocketracer]

I have a 1992 Baja islander with a 4.3 OMC Cobra in it. The starter has gone bad and I am looking for a replacement. The currant starter is stamped ASE J1171 and looks to have a stamp on the end of it that says 1998. My question is will any ase J1171 starter with the same bolt pattern work on this, I am having a hard time finding a starter that says it is for a 1992 OMC. all the J1171 starters state they are for 1998 and newer motors.
Thanks in advance for any help.

all you need is any marine starter for any gm V6 motor staggerd bolt pattern such as arco 30470, sierra 18-5913, etc

Ayuh,...... Welcome Aboard,..... That's not a part number, but a marine rating,.....

Chevy starters only come in 2 flavors,.....
The staggered bolt pattern for the 14" flywheel,....
'n the straight across bolt pattern for the 12" flywheel,......

You need a new copy of which ever you take off,.....

J1171 just means marine rated. You will fine that label on all kinds of parts in the engine bay.
