I bought a 70 runner with an original 383, 4sp set up. Engine already rebuilt and dynoed (I have the paper work) Anyway I get all the wiring etc ready for a start up and the starter hits the flywheel rather than engaging. I take off the inspection cover and sure enough the flywheel is almost rubbing the case of teh starter.
So are there different starters for 4 speeds? Tried to measure the flywheel in the car and it looks like 13inch. Maybe 12.5.
It has headers and before I remove the starter I need to know. It has to be either wrong starter or maybe even too big of a flywheel (God Forbid!)
Thanks for any insight.
