Challenge participants - extra 350 starter??

Yeah, my last minute stuff still having it's ups and downs!

Anyone going to the challenge with a spare starter? 

Looks like this

Alternately I'll try a parts store in the area.

There are lots of parts stores between hotel and track, also let me make a call

Looks SBC and/or LS.

Good luck with the parts store. 

"What's the year and model?"

I just need one for a 350...

"What is it going into"

An MG

"What year MG?"

It's a 1986 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the V8

"Do you know the engine code?"

In reply to captdownshift (Forum Supporter) :

Lol. I also understand there's multiple bolt patterns, and the ones locally have absolutely nothing to compare to in stock.

I'll check to see what I have. I'll be there tomorrow.

Edit: well, E36 M3! When I open it from my phone, it takes me to a generic advance auto parts list  

I selected 1988 Chevrolet K 1500 And it came up with two reman's in store for the location closest to Gainesville raceway.

I found that location by googling "advance auto parts close to Gainesville raceway" then clicked on the map and chose the one that was closest.

My starter didn't spin 

I have one. Is anybody driving up through/past Tampa?

I put a ran when parked BBC starter in my truck bed last night.  No idea if BBC and SBC are the same.

In reply to Stampie :

Google sbc, then Google bbc and let me know. 

I have one available for lend from a SBC from Tunatruck in Greenville SC if anyone is passing through and he still needs it. PM me

In reply to white_fly :

Where are you in Tampa?

Busch and Dale Mabry. PM me and I'll be happy to send my address.

PM sent

Old school Chevy starters come in straight and staggered bolt patterns.  The straight is used with a smaller diameter flywheel.  As long as you use the correct bolt pattern for the flywheel they're interchangeable between BBC and SBC.

Starter picked up in Tampa. On way to hotel. Save me a parking space.
