The old style 6.2 starter gave up because of low batteries, bought the gear reduction new style starter, which is physically smaller but makes more torque. Truck has been setting for about 3 years, but would be nice to have a spare truck. Problem is, the old starter was only being held on with one starter bolt, the big old starter couldn't move as it was flat against the block. Threads are stripped going into block with bolt broke off about 1/2 inch in. If I have to spend more than a couple hundred dollars more to get the old girl running again, I am just going to sell it as a parts truck, as tranny only has about 15K on it. Any ideas on how to keep the new starter in place without pulling the engine to fix it right? The new starter does have a small stud that MAYBE could build a bracket to the frame, but I'm not set up to do that. DOUG
