Starter trouble
By Joe Metzger - 07/31/2004 4:16:31 PM; IP 68.81.74.236
I started my 428 up for the first time since it's rebuild. Even with aluminum heads, intake and radiator it will not crank when hot. It has a fresh starter supplied by my engine guy and I installed an optima battery. Starts fine when cold. Yes it does have headers and my guess is that heat is the problem. Has anyone had simular problems and what type of starer can you suggest.

Thanks Joe
