Re: Best starter heat shield

Use the 98 Tahoe starter with 2ga battery cables (including the negative side) and problem solved.

Amazing how many people upgrade the positive side and neglect the grounds (yes multiple) on these things. I've just started swapping out some of the electrical on my Green Jeans project and made a HUGE difference already.

Feedback on the Tahoe starter is GREAT too. Starts my 11:1 compression 350 with timing advanced to the absolute limit with ease, even at full temperature on 100 degree days this summer. 1.75" headers and no heat shield either.
