starter problem

Hi to all
I have a 77 f 100 that the new starter bottoms out in the bell housing manual 3 speed
Is there a difference in starters in automatics
Parts store only ask's engine (300 inline type a ) not transmission
Also there were 2 different post mounts the one I took out was on the side .
Anyone have a clue
Thanks

looks like everything up to 1/77 has a post, from 2/77 on has the battery tab...not sure on physical differences between cases. Are you certain the engine/trans is original to the truck?
