Quote: Doesn't some of that the #6 valves are doing depend on the cam profile?
correct, more orientated towards a stockish type cam and with that being said I am firmly convinced that it is a starter/ring gear teeth issue. Other than starting the starter gear(teeth) are going to be retracted & not going to be affected by any kickback or anything going on w the ring gear etc.
