starter for a 5.3 so i went to the junkyard today to get a starter for the 2000 5.3 that i got from another junkyard. and when i asked if they had one i had to know if i had the " 2- long bolt starter " , or " the 1-long 1- short bolt starter". how the hell do i know witch one i need?
I ran into the same situation. My 5.3 didn't come with a starter, so I am trying to find a used one also. Is it correct to assume that all LS starters will fit all the blocks (4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.0) , it's just the bolt different that causes them to be different? I knew there was either 2 bolts the same length or 1 short and 1 long bolt set. Can anyone clarify this for sure? Thanks
well mine is a ls1 starter, it uses a long and a short bolt. my buddies 6.0L uses a long and short bolt. i bought the bolts from the Help section at autozone. theyre just regular sbc chevy starter bolts.
Does anybody have an LS starter with 2 long bolts, since I've never seen one? The only starter that seems to be really special is the one for the GTO motors, if you're using the GTO bellhousing. If you do a search on car-part.com, it does ask, which starter and list differant ones, depending on which you chiose, but all of them I've seen have been one long and one short
