1979 F350 Uhaul with 330HD engine. Need starter

Hello all,

I am in need of a starter for my 79 Uhaul F350, 330HD engine. Can someone tell me what starter is compatible with this model? Maybe a part number or what year and model I can ask for at my local auto parts shop.
I tried my local dealer but their database not only don't go back that far (only to 1980) it does not offer the option of a 330HD engine for that year.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

All FT starters are the same.
You sure this is a 1979? 1964/78's came with FT engines, have 5 valve cover bolts per side. FT engines cancelled at the end of the 1978 model run.

1979's came with 370/429 engines, have 7 valve cover bolts per side.

D7HZ-11002-A {replaced C4TZ-11002-B (SA-625) & D6TZ-11002-A (SA-713)} .. FT Starter Assy (Motorcraft SA-713-A) / Obsolete

1964/78 B/C/F/L/LN/LNT/LT/LTS500/800 330 2V Medium Duty ~ 330 2V Heavy Duty ~ 361 2V & 4V (1974/78) ~ 391 4V // 1973/78 F350 330 2V

CARPENTER NOS OBSOLETE PARTS in Concord NC has 1 = 800-476-9653.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 2 = 800-543-4959.

Sorry for bringing up and old thread. I have a 1972 F700 391FT and need a starter, will a 390 starter work? if not what will work that I can easily get. Thanks for your help.

Stand by. I seem to recall a post about FT to FE starter interchange. I will search it out and get back to you.

According to this, as long as the 390 starter is from '65 and later, it will work. Note the comments in post 3:

More discussion, and another person using the FE starter on the FT.

I tried NAPA for the FT starter, no soap. (You change the vehicle type to "Medium-Heavy..." and the bigger trucks appear) But they have FE starters and parts.
