I am researching starters for the 787. I happened to look at the 787 RFI Starter and it has a different part number than the 1996. I am curious about this different part numbers on the same engine. I am about to put a 1996 Starter on a 2001 RFI so we'll see just what the difference might be. LOL Preliminary, "stick it in there" fitment looks good. I looked at installing it before I looked at part numbers. I hope the ski can't read... maybe it won't notice.
