I had a couple people want to post ridiculously rude comments about me in one of my other threads so I defend my position. I report these incidents to Joey and he is going to call me the one being "snarky" I will not log into this site again.

This is just the latest in a long series of threads on this topic. We have pretty much covered everything. This thread was merely to get more ideas. The other night I remembered that when I looked into the radiator, I saw four sets of openings. So I figured that is how one can tell how many...

Speak for yourself Pabs and your two buddies. Anyway, I just wanted to thank Splicer because I didn't even realize that there were aftermarket starters available. He posted this in another thread: "For what it's worth, I'm running a Powermaster mini starter, TTI Headers and battery in the...

You know what else is retarded about you? It is funny you try and sound like some genius talking about the delta T principle. Like it is really that complicated to run a couple tests on the battery and starter.

Why do you go through such great lengths to make yourself look like the fool? And how could you possibly expect anybody to respect you on this board or in life? You post these quotes without any additional information and try and make me look like an idiot. But, anyone with half a brain can see...

Sorry man. I am beyond that. I know that there is nothing wrong with my installation. I simply stated that there are other pictures, not go and find them. I also mentioned that there is nothing to see, unless you like looking at pictures of batteries with cables attached to them. Furthermore...

You are right Bruzilla. Good catch. I was panicking at the time. It was just red and white flashing lights. Cool. Looks like my spot is still safe.

After having two boxes fail from Don at 4 seconds flat, I have gone to the chrome box. I had an orange box on the car before Don's box and it lasted eight years, tens of thousands of miles, including three trips across the entire U.S from coast to coast and I never had a single part fail. I...

I posted pics of the relocation kit under one of my earlier threads. There is really nothing to see.

That is interesting. What kind of test can I perform on the VR? I have a new electronic VR. But remember, the car went for a 10 minute cruise around the block and had a hard time cranking. It was the good people here that gave me some new ideas, so I will exhaust these new possibilities first...

Jim I am sorry to say but you are an idiot. Go to a different website like Moparts where trolls such as yourself thrive. You probably do not even have a car. You and Don at 4 seconds flat would probably make good friends since he was rude enough to actually cuss at me on the phone because his...

5 more options left till I change hobbies. 1. Call Mark/hope to identify problem areas with wiring 2. Run some tests with a volt meter/fix problems from number 1 4. Relocate two ten inch fans so they actually blow through radiator 5. Install more powerful starter 6. Buy another shroud kit...

Well I do appreciate all of the advice. I will take a while to read the link. It is also good to hear that I do not need to shim my starter.

6 more options left till I change hobbies. 1. Call Mark/hope to identify problem areas with wiring 2. Run some tests with a volt meter/fix problems from number 1 3. Look into possibility of shimming starter 4. Relocate two ten inch fans so they actually blow through radiator 5. Install more...

I actually tried that. That is when I discovered that it had nothing to do with timing. I forgot to mention in this thread that it has nothing to do with timing. In an earlier thread I mentioned how I disconnected the coil wire and it still did not spin any faster. This is when Swt5ltr...

No, I am saying that after I had made those changes I don't remember this being a problem. I drove the car enough times, and for long trips as far as 100 miles from San Diego to Orange. If I would have been having a problem like this back when this car used to be my only car I would have known...

One of these starters from Powermaster have 3.4 hp. I think the stock starter has about 1.9 hp. That might help, if it is getting the power that it needs from the battery cable, which I cannot imagine why it wouldn't. I have done every modification myself so I know what has been done and how. It...

What is this about shimming a starter? Why would I have to go through that nightmare, and how exactly is this done and why?

The battery cables and grounds straps are 1/0 guage welding cable and the ends were put on at a shop for me. This is what Mark at MAD recommends. There is no way to check amp draw at the starter unless I remove the headers, but shouldn't this test be done once everything is hot? I have not done...

The problem is heat related. When the engine gets hot, the starter slows down. My distributor does not have a vacuum advance. However, I am not sure that the engine running hotter at idle is overheating the starter. Last night I cruised for ten minutes with the engine at 180 degrees the entire...
