[QUOTE="CobraDave1, post: 6786856, member: 66016"] [b]Starter issue[/b] I have a 70 Boss, but it's the real deal. The starter is nothing special. I don't believe it's any different than any 302 starter. You didn't say what the engine was. I assume it's not a Boss. Upgraded regular 302 I'm guessing.
