1983 Chevy k10 With 454 Starter issue
Cdog_1996:
Need help! I have a 454 out of a 78 suburban in my 83 k10, has started and ran before but my starter is very far out from the flex plate, the Bendix might catch 1/16 of an inch of the flex plate, turns slow, sometimes it doesn't do anything and virtually impossible to get it to crank consistently. Makes a terrible screeching sound, I've tried a stock style and a mini starter both with the same issue, I can't find a solution for this problem
wz7u:
Wrong flex plate?
Cdog_1996:
I don't think so, it was attached to a th400 and then pulled I installed it to a built th350, seems original I don't see why or how the flex plate would be wrong and it matches the pads on converter
JohnnyPopper:
Try some shims.
Shifty:
Is the bendix fully extending (and at least 12v to the starter)?
