As willis mentioned, it will work by just changing the solenoid. Many have done it. Downside to this approach is the increased torque tends to slam the Bendix into the ring gear. There have been reports of damage--although they have been few--so is something to be aware of. I believe the 12v 55-6 starter will bolt up but I haven't verified this.
