that things the biggest pain in the ass to get on! had to getto it from under, over the top the header was right in the way. for one of the nuts we had to put the socket on and hold it in place while we took vise grips to it...long and tiring process. all in all, that thing sucks. took about an hour to get it on because of all the inconvienences. we thought about taking the header off to get it on easier, but that would mean we would have to take the whole exhuast off due to not having air tools for the collector (they used an impact wrench to get it on). pain in da butt.

in what car.

its not the origional engine. its a 73 gmc.

this computer is dumb, cant edit posts from it. but anyways its the same starter that chevy has used since like forever.

you can thank the headers for the problems.



next time put in a mini starter so there is more room

If I am right in presuming that 350 is referring to the cubic inches, I suggest using the entire mini engine as a starter. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I had the same problem in my '79 Camaro w/ aftermarket headers. I found out the hard way that its just easier unbolting them and moving them.

mini starter or gear reduction starter
