Mine revs pretty nicely. IMG_4044.mov

I have a nice set of SUs that I’ve been considering putting in my 77 and dumping the EFI. Why? Maybe because I’m crazy. I must be because my engine purrs with the EFI. Only a sick bastard would fix something that isn’t broken. The idea of carbs appeals to me for some reason. A person on this forum I highly respect told me I’d be making a mistake and making my car less reliable and less easy to own and use. I’d love to see how this works out.

There is a 40% mark up on this one….I’ll throw in free shipping .

Those are way too shiny for Bruce.

So you already have the bolt you need. The thread pitch for the starter is 1.50, at least for us 280z owners. Not sure what the thread pitch os for the elite 240z owners class.

This looks like 45mm with a 7 on the head. Is this enough Patina ? It has a captive washer.

Found another one in my stash. This looks like 45 m. But it has a “6” not a 7

This might be too short 45mm =1.77in. My micrometer had a dead battery [emoji37]

Bruce, I think I have one. I had to replace mine yesterday because my new starter has a thicker flange.

Nope, never had a silver Z.

I agree, I’m confident this is a better starter than any reman you’ll find out there. I’m pretty happy with it.

I got the starter installed, 20 min job, and yes Zed I needed a longer bolt. Had them in my stash (45mm M10x1.50). What a night and day difference between this starter and that garbage AC Delco reman. Sounds totally different and I can tell is spinning faster also. Sounds like a modern starter. The AC Delco had a annoying whine and everyone always asked me if that was normal.

I’ll install this Monday and let you guys know how it is. I don’t think it’s made in the US but let’s hope that any company spending time to have a test sheet may actually care about quality,

My starter arrived. Looks pretty good. Came with a test sheet
