Do you know if either type will fit Tracy's redrive plate?

Think I missed the first part of this thread due to my defunct email server.
I have been told that there are two types of starters which fit the 86 - 88
manual transmission.  One is the 86 model year which is a longer, non-geared
starter weighing about 10 pounds.  The later years were shorter, had a
planetary gear drive, and weighed 7 1/2  pounds.  The later one is more
desireable of course.

There are two kinds of geared starters. One has a laid over solenoid and the
other the solenoid is on a radial.
