The World is NOT Flat...

[sam z]

I'm with Ray on this, no doubt about it. And, my previous OEM type unit suffered the second ailment that John discussed above. Incredibly frustrating, and couldn't depend on the car to start even if I just drove it down the street for some gas.

Got the powermaster and loving it every time I turn the key. My :cents:

Picked up my new PowerMaster starter this afternoon. I was on the phone with Johnny McMoPar as I wheeled into the Advance Auto Parts parking lot. He was laughing his butt off when I told him I had to go so I could walk in and pick up my "World Is Not Flat" starter...

Now if I can just get a break from the rain tomorrow... One, so I can take a couple of the cars to a little show that they are having in the parking lot at the Advance Auto Parts store - I promised Jesse that I would bring him some toys down for static display for his customer appreciation day. Two, so I can finally cut the grass. And three, so I can get the starter on...steel roof on the toy box if you're trying to figure out why I care about the rain if I am inside. It gets incredibly freakin' noisy in there during a good rain...

Not much of a carp eater...I've always been more of a fried catfish kinda guy...

I can't open the file (obviously an audio file) for some reason...so I'm missing out on the gag...but I have a fairly good idea what is contained within...

Not for a high torque mini starter.

O.K. I did it. I may have a lowly 383 auto but, I love the way the old Chrysler reduction sounds when it starts. If it ever dumps, I'll be re-building it. BTW did I wish Basketcase a Happy Birthday.

No such thing. We all know it's the color that makes the difference... ot:

Well, here's an update that will make the Pre-Columbus Map Crowd chuckle... The PowerMaster mini-starter doesn't fit. The 30+ year old headers that are the car will not clear. The tube off of #5 would have to be beaten to a pulp in order for it to work. Now I've got to decide if I want to pony up $25 for the STK16 and rebuild this one or pony up $50 and get one that is ready to go. Either way, I'm not doing it today. Too bloody hot out there and I'm beat. Had to jack the engine up just to get the old one out as I expected. It pretty much fought me tooth and nail. Lost a nice chunk of forehead to the LCA when I turned around under the car and ran smack dab into it. The score at halftime is LCA - one, ACME - zero.
