The days of big heavy bulky starters are past.
Any time you need a starter, look the parts guy in the face and tell him "98 model Tahoe with a 350".
You'll get one of these little fellas. They are tiny and crank like a mule. Even problematic applications suddenly become easy starters. I paid 80 bucks total for this delivered from Rockauto.
That's not some piece of sh!t either, it's a brand new Remy starter. GM knew what they were doing when they started equipping trucks with these mini starters from the factory.
