« **on:** June 19, 2015, 09:37:29 PM »

Anyone know where I can get a starter local(Santee, Ca.) trying to get boat going for Father's Day at el cap. No part number on the stupid thing can I get one at local auto store?

Thanks

This guy, hole in the wall shop. But has piles and piles of stuff. If he doesn't have it ready he can rebuild it in two days.

I used a starter from a 2001 corvette. From autozone. About $70. works great! Weighs less and smaller than starter in pic. Google STARTER FOR 454. I am not 100% sure about year. And there are 2 different ones according to which flywheel you have. 153 or 168 tooth. Good luck. I am refering to bottom mount.

Is it ok to go from a 9 tooth gear to a 11 tooth?

Sorry for all the dumb questions just wanna get this thing running today.
