Anyone try the msd 5090 starter?
1969vert replied to lalojamesliz's topic in 1969-70 Technical Forum
ran one on my big motor but had issues with it hitting the screw in freeze plugs.. still have it .. was a good one.. had to grind the solenoid for clearance. Swapped starters to a late model PM cranked the motor fine.. with timing pulled before 800 rpms.. -
Anyone think a hydraulic press useful on these cars?
