Interesting discussion. I'm stalled for a number of months now. Spring; time to get her going again. I am getting starter squeel. Is there a consensus here on 514/Lakewood combo? I got my starter from a local shop. I doubt it was for 176 tooth app. I also am concerned my problems could be from overtorqueing piston rods which I pulled after a long anti freeze episode. I torqued them 10 lbs over what it took to "break them" loose which in hindsight I am sure was 2- to 30 lbs over spec. Replacing ring gear in my mind would be an incredible task. If I need a shim, where does it go? Is there a consensus on the best starter for this combo? 514/Lakewood?
