So looking to purchase a 9 teeth mini starter now and how come they say "will replace older 9 tooth starters" ? Is there no difference? Uug !!!!!!

maybe post up your block numbers here and ask exactly what year the engine is and what starter and flex plate should be in there someone like GT Jets will know exactly what it should be.

it sound like the nose con on the starter is to short that gap might be part of the problem if I remember right chevy made two starter one that had a long con and short con and the short con was used on the small blocks

That makes total since cuz looking at it from the back side...the tip of nose cone barely sticks out past flex plate.

Sound like the one you have is for a small block if you call the part house and have them measure the length on a cone for a big block Chevy the starter that I have for my big block the outside hole measure from there to the cone is 1"7/8

It not going to be fun but if you have some one that can help you put a make on the flex plat and then have some turn the motor over slow and count the teeth it will be a time consumer

I'm thinking that your problem if the count is right I believe that the small flex plate you will haft to get the start that fit that flex plate
