Sadly this is quite a difficult test for me to do. It is near impossible to get a lead on the terminals on the starter as the terminals are right up against the block on the backside of that starter.

Add to that burning hot headers and I don't see me being able to fit the starter with the volt meter while it's hot. Trust me, I'd love to rule out one or the other.

BTW the cables are pretty much new and look to be in good shape but they are OEM gauge. However, I can't imagine everyone here that doesn't have 1 gauge cables has my issues.

If I do end up popping for a "performance" starter (aka not reman parts store), which one do I go with? I need to make sure it is dimensionally identical to the unit I have and will stand up to the headers.

Thanks!
