I had a Hemi in my A12 4 speed Roadrunner with the original bellhousing and starter from my 440 for years. No mods were needed and I and never ever had a starter problem. I was running hooker Comp headers. I never tried it with the Hemi manifolds or a direct drive starter?



can you remember what flywheel you used, 10-1/2 or 11 inch clutch?



It would have been a 143 tooth wheel with the stock bellhousing .

One common thing here ... HEADERS, Wayne brewer was the one that said 143 tooth and manifolds do not mix on a HEMI ... Of course a 143 tooth 8 bolt wheel and 383/440 bellhousing will fit a hemi , it's the starter and the manifolds that are the issue. Change to headers , problem solved.
