Crusader RA122008 - RH/CW Starter, 305/350/454
A replacement starter needs to match the installed starting arrangement, not just the engine displacement. Crusader RA122008 is cataloged as an RH/CW starter for 305, 350 and 454 applications, with replacement references spanning Crusader, PCM, Indmar, Westerbeke, Marine Power and OMC. Use those references together with the mounting configuration and confirmed rotation convention to narrow the selection with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does RH/CW describe the engine’s rotation?
A: The catalog applies RH/CW to this starter, but does not define the observation point or its relationship to engine rotation. Confirm the manufacturer’s convention and required starter reference before ordering.
Q: Will RA122008 fit every 305, 350 or 454 engine?
A: No universal fitment is established. Those are the listed engine applications, but the specific engine, mounting arrangement and starter reference must agree.
Q: Which Crusader starters are listed as replaced by RA122008?
A: The catalog lists 42083, 42090, 96078 and RA122008R. The RA122008R reference is retained as a replacement number, not used to infer this product’s condition or construction.
Q: Are voltage, tooth count and mounting dimensions specified?
A: Those specifications are not provided in the available listing. Contact us to confirm the details required for your installation rather than assuming them from the engine size.
Q: Does an Indmar, Westerbeke, Marine Power or OMC cross-reference establish fitment by brand alone?
A: No. Match the exact referenced number and verify the engine application. A listed cross-reference does not make this starter suitable for every engine from that brand.
