First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... You can check the clearance between the flywheel gear teeth and the starter motor shaft with a bent piece of 1/8" wire. Bob S. In a message dated 12/6/2008 10:48:52 P.M.

First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... After putting the starter in, I noticed there is no way to use the gap guage provided. This would have worked while the engine was out of the car without the bell housing in the way. Should have done a dry prefit check. Oh well. Looks like I'll have to listen for problems. Also, got reminded how tight things become and how diffucult the connections are to get to. I think I will run the wire extra long, install wire while supporting the starter on a jack stand, and then just loop the wire somewhere safe and away from the headers, etc. Would be nice if there was simply a plug in connector for this. The convenience of having a remote solenoid is starting to make more sense now too.
