In order to change the direction of a typical series DC Starter Motor the orientation of the field windings relative to the armature needs swapped i.e. if the field windings end/terminations were swapped relative to the armature (or vice versa) then it will turn the opposite direction. This involves high current connections and proper attachment n soldering and usualy requires a starter shop. Also if it uses a centrifugal bendix type of starter drive that needs changed in addition. Finally if the brushes are offset at any angle (like many generators are) they may need attention prior to reversal but if they are straight down against the commutator they should still be okay.................

BOTTOM LINE you need to go to a good old fashioned Mom n Pop genny n starter repair shop IFFFFFF any still exisit in your area and they can tell you if its physically possible (due to mechanical constraints like bendix n fields etc etc) even though in theory it can be done.
