Re: mini starters

I posted this pic in another thread that I started involving my flexplate. But I wanted to follow up here about the starter. For a 168-tooth flywheel/flexplate, this starter will work perfectly on a SBC (and maybe big blocks too). Note the "L" bolt pattern that is the same for just about every SBC ever made.

186-tooth version: 8.1L 2003 Yukon or Silverado. L-pattern bolts. Advance PN 17420
153-tooth version: 5.7L 1995 Corvette. straight-pattern bolts. Advance PN 17124
Either one costs around $118 as of today with a lifetime warranty.

You might need different bolts, but so far I've been able to reuse my stock bolts on all of the 153-tooth applications that I've tried (and I've done many). YMMV.

The starter is on the left side of this pic. It is super light but packs a punch. Disregard the flexplate and other parts in the pic (was for my other post; has nothing to do with this thread).
