Re: Broken ear on block for starter?

I had this happen to me with a 400...I never came up with a solution at the time and ended up swapping in a different motor. However, I did learn later that the early small blocks (like 55-?) had the starters mounted on a "plate":

Not sure if that would work or not...I have always wondered if that would have fixed it for me. Maybe someone else on the board has experience with these?
