    Looking for info ? Cooling system !

    If you go for a fan clutch I would recommend the GM model for the 454, I replaced mine with a Hayden HD unit and the engine temp went up 10 degrees with a GM 7 blade fan, put back the original and back to normal temp, maybe clutch was defective ?

    Anyone prefer the mini starters?

    Take your starter to a rebuilder and have him install quality ( not Chinese ) parts and bench test it, much better than buying starters in a box built with junk parts !

    Starter with a mind of its own

    Take the starter to a starter / alternator rebuilder and have him put in good ( not Chinese ) parts and then bench test it, most starters that come from parts stores are just slapped together with inferior parts.
