i thought i read somewhere that the B series (6cyl) starter has a bit more oomph to it but will fit (possibly with some modifcations)

I think there was a change from a conventional starter to a reduction starter sometime around the late X-series to early e-series.

ba (possibly even bf i don't know) starter motors fit all the way back to xf. for the i6

can't go the other way though afaik i.e. xf starter in ba, the older units are larger and produce less torque.

They may be the same though . . . but you'd have to check.
