Small Block Starters...

Am I just getting old, or did I see some time ago where someone posted that you could use a later starter from a Dakota on a smallblock and that it had higher torque? My old starter on the 360 is getting tired and if I can make an improvement without the cost of a mini-starter (which I don't really need) I would like to do it since I'm going to buy a starter anyway. Thanks, Dave.
