67 mustang starter
By Charlie - 02/16/2003 4:01:07 PM; IP 12.252.228.242
Just got done trying to help a friend change his starter. 67 Fast back mustang w/ 390 engine w/ cj heads hooker headers and lakewood bell. Problem is I can tighten the top and bottom bolts, but I can't seem to clear the headers to get to the 3 rd bolt. The engine was freshly rebuilt when he bought it and runs great. The starter we pulled looked plenty old and only had 2 bolts in it. Any one run one with 2 bolts? Did they get a good life out of it?
The last 2 engines I put in I installed a new starter before dropping the engine in, glad I did it now. Any how the car fired right up, and I sent him on his way, Car is his daily driver, and I didn't figure a couple starts would hurt in the mean time. I changed original bolts out for 2 brand new grade 8 bolts. Opinions welcome.
Thanks
Charlie
