Sorry Mate, but do you mean electric start? or do you want to replace points ignition with electronic?

i guessed you were talking in pilot terms then, ignition...contact.....chocks away..... ;D
Anyway, getting back to the point, my uneducated guess on this would be no. Although they all do the same job, starters would come in all different shapes,sizes and gearings to suit their applications. Depending on what you actually wish to convert (larger mini monkey trike maybe?) it still may be possible to add a starter motor as quite a few of these are duel start,and may have the correct casing to facilitate a starter,  but as i say, it all depends what you have to begin with.
