Randy,
Did you ever get the starter question answered? I got the info from Ron Earp and ordered the Hi Torque starter with the lengthened nose piece. Then we noticed it would interfere with the CVs, as it sat too high. It fit well, but it could not be clocked in the right direction. It has about 4 or so positions it can be clocked to. The position it came with was the best(or the lowest). When we inverted it 180, it hit the fins on the trans. We cured that problem with grinding the fins down a bit. The engine should be fired up next week(I hope).
