Cobra75 With the starter drive gear extended onto the flywheel you should have a ring gear bachlash of .010-.030". The starter pinion to ring gear clearance is .060-.140. The tilton starter comes with shims to set it up correctly. I use allen head bolts to mount on the motor because you have more room in that tight location. I also use the separate starter soleiod on the car and not directly to the ignition switch. It's the ampage spikes that wear out the contacts in the switch. Also you can jump the car from under the hood in an emergency if needed. Hope this helps. Rick Lake
