C2A/C3A ex. maniolds & starter? |
By Mike McQuesten - 11/09/2002 12:49:34 AM; IP 63.191.224.126 |
Here's the package:
'64 427 with a 184 tooth flywheel enclosed in a C6OE bellhousing backed with a toploader 4 speed. A rebuilt correct bendix starter. Exhaust manifolds are the long style HP '63 - '64 406/427.
The problem:
The copper starter stud where the cable bolts on interferes with the right side 427 manifold.
The question:
Was there a specific starter from FoMoCo for the HP manifold?
Remember this starter in question is a rebuild commonly available from parts stores. The copper stud is approximately one inch long.
This question is for a friend who has this combination in a '61 Starliner.
In my '60 with shorty HP manifolds I have the original starter and the stud is only a half inch.
Second question:
Should my friend just go ahead and cut that rebuilt starters stud down to a half inch? I'm sure this is what he'll do to allow the necessary clearance.
We were just wondering if anyone out there knows if the '63-'64 406/427 starters were unique with a shorter stud? |
