    For the Starter ground, couldn't you use a double sided stud bolt for the starter? Ford uses them a lot on their Timing covers, I'm not sure if there is a proper name. It would allow you to tighten the starter with the long side and then put on the ground and tighten with another nut. Thanks for the videos. It's really helped me plan out my relocation.

      Funny you should mention that… Short answer - I wish! Yeah, I would really like a bolt that has a stud on the end. The problem with using a piece of threaded rod or something is that the LS starter bolts specifically, have a knurled section that locates the starter perfectly and negates the use of shims. Without the knurled portion of the stud, you risk the starter walking a little bit which could result in eaten up flexplates etc. I wish GM or an aftermarket company would produce one. Ive even thought of welding something up.

    An electrical short under load can still measure zero ohms (or thereabouts)

    What about a lock washer between the lug and the starter bolt?

    • @intheshoptv
      @intheshoptv  5 місяців тому

      It would certainly help to hold the bolt more from loosening, however, even less of the knurled portion of the bolt would be engaged in the block🤷🏻‍♂️
