I have a 153-tooth mini starter that I bought on eBay many years ago, so there was no application given. I just looked for a starter for a 153-tooth flywheel.

You need to use special hybrid bolts, that were used on the LT1 (PN 12338064 and 14037733). These bolts have an additional step in the knurled area to properly index the starter nose with the block. I took these pictures so I would not have to research the fitment, again. For a 168-tooth flywheel mini starter, you would need 2 of the long bolts.
