help! any body know were a 1/4'' spacer can be purchased?its going on a 460 bbf.trans, shops have no clue!that seams blanken weird.other than make one,help.need it before plowmans.
What Steve needs is a spacer to go between the crank and the flex plate .
He had a reverse mounted starter , the bell houseing is metal with a aluminum mounting adapter for the starter. very old style .The starter will not engage the flywheel deep enough. It keeps eating the teeth off the starter .
Here are a couple of pics

You mean that thin metal plate deal, goes between the block & the bellhousing?
steve, get some 1/4 plate steel and use your flywheel as a template.lay the flywheel onto the plate and trace out the flywheel bolts and crank hole,center punch them and drill out the holes while flywheel is clamped to the plate, ya know what i mean? should have brought it up to me bud, my uncle has a lathe and i can make pretty spacers with it.

Nah, mine is a regular bottom mount starter. Its all Hardin Marine stuff, if I remember correctly. Looks nothing like that deal you have.
