first start starter wont stop.

I looked at photos of several of that style of starter and there doesn't seem to be a real continuity between the different brands as far as the clocking of the solenoid.

My question has always been that unless he is facing a tight space situation or has compression high enough to need the gear reduction why would a person want one of the little aftermarket ones at their cost when a regular heavy Delco starter is a proven entity that gives very little trouble.

The NEW starters are more powerful , smaller & lighter then the original GM starters.
This leaves more room around them for cooling & headers .

They draw less amps so you can use a smaller lighter battery also.
