Recently I went through the same thing! I'll use the starter as an example. I had to buy a real nice starter that had the correct part number and date code on the aluminum snout. Then I had to buy another starter that had the right part number and date code on the barrel. It's getting hard to find parts that havn't been blasted to the point of no return. Years ago the rebuild shops would tear them down and throw the components into bins. Worse yet sometimes they would remove all original part numbers and date codes and replace them with their logos. Make a list and start searching!
