Thank GOD for older guys that know their stuff it's quiet as all get out too.... this one did come with the instructions on shimming with the 1/8 in. rod and not the oldstyle between the gears .20mm crap. That's something else the older guy said the instructions that had been with these starter are wrong they are for the mid 60's model that bolted up differently.
Thanks again!!!

I think if the truth be told, GM "dropped the ball" on machining on the bottom of some of the blocks. They opted to machine the starter nose to compensate.....once the stock starter was lost, the game began....crazyL
