26th, 55th, and 56th Series Starter Compatibility?

Still running through 12V starter options for my 26th series 288ci I8 Clipper. There's a seller on eBay making starters with indexable flanges/noses for 55th and 56th series cars, and I'm wondering if the 26th series uses the same mounting flange, gear pitch, throw, etc. The starter assembly and case part numbers listed in the literature section do not match between 26th, 55th, and 56th series, which is a bad start. But I'm hoping the gents at Kanter, or someone else familiar with multiple series, can confirm similarities or differences between the starter flanges, gears, and rings. I have good measurement of the 26th series flange and nose, and can get them for the gear teeth and throw if needed for comparison.
