Product Specifications and Features


Aftermarket 12V marine starter motor for selected MerCruiser, Volvo Penta and OMC Cobra GM-based petrol engines using the later permanent-magnet gear-reduction starter with staggered / offset bolt pattern. This REC3885317 unit is positioned as a replacement for Volvo Penta 3885317 and Mercury / MerCruiser 863007A1 style applications.

The strongest application identifiers for this starter are the 11-tooth pinion, clockwise rotation, bottom-mount offset bolt pattern and use on GM marine engines with a 14 inch flywheel. It is widely used across selected 3.0L, 4.3L, 5.0L, 5.7L, 7.4L, 8.1L and 8.2L gasoline applications where the existing starter or OEM reference matches.

Because several GM marine starters look similar but use different nose housings, bolt patterns or flywheel combinations, this listing should always instruct the buyer to match the OEM number and physical mounting layout before ordering.
