Look at Post #4, Jerry. Question asked and answered.

Roger, since you always answer my question I have another one for you. I want to put a mini starter on my truck. I have an adapterplate between the engine and trans to use a stock starter. Do you know of a ministarter that bolts to the bellhousing rather than the engine? The stock starter is right against the header and I think eventually the heat will get to it. I'm thinking buying a ministarter that bolts to the block then redrilling it to mount it to the adapter plate.

Tom,
It's been too many years since I messed with a small block chevy! I would probably give the guys at Summit Racing a call and see if they can guide you to the best starter for that application. A quick look at Summit's starter's this one - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/su...et?prefilter=1 looks promising, but I'd probably call and ask the guys who sell them every day and see what they recommend.
