truck starter info
For anyone looking to use a truck starter: Some posts on here say to use a 5.3 starter, but after doing some research this looks to me to be wrong, what you want is a 6.0 starter. The difference is that the 5.3 starter pinion gear has 9 teeth, the 6.0 pinion gear has 11 teeth. Example part numbers: Delco-Remy 96232 for the 5.3 version, 96222 for the 6.0 version. They look identical in pictures. Example truck: 2005 Silverado 5.3 (96232), or same truck with 6.0 (96222).
I'm not saying that the 9 tooth gear version wouldn't work on an fbody, but the stock fbody starter has 11. I haven't actually gotten one yet, this is just from looking at specs. Are the 5.3 and 6.0 flywheels different?
