RLW,
I didn't know about drilling the block. I am not about to do that. You convinced me, I'll check out CVR starters. What the hell, I am going for more $$$ than I had planned already, so what's another couple of hundred $$.

Checky,
More info. I had to set the gear lash clearance with the CVR. You would have to on any of the performance starters that use the billet mounting block. Tilton recommended the same procedure.
I had to shim mine .045".
Do all of this when the motor is out of the boat and the flywheel housing is off.

RLW,
Thanks for all the info. It will be a while until I get to that part. I am building this motor a little at a time. I just like to take the time to research things in advance while I have the time.
