Re: Starter problems and now flex plate

Ground cable to the motor would be better bolted right to the block or head. Get rid of the lug and battery switch and run a 1 piece cable from the battery to the starter. Put a heavy duty starter on it. That little wire from the key to the starter is as important as anything else. If it has a voltage drop or has low current the rest is not going to help. On you one piece rear main motor the ballancer is neutral ballanced and due to the round crank end the flex plate will have weight on it. So its part internal and part external ballanced compared to the 400 small block.
