Is the guts from an FE starter the same internally as a 302?
Could i swap good guts from one to a 302's?
my starter is now acting like thbe other fella from canadas post. it is slowly turning the engine then styopping and only making a grind/ super fast spinning sound. But if i get out the engine will still move with slight force.
maybe i'm going through this so i can understand his poroblem?
but it engages and moves then acts like lock down. could i have a bad bendix in there?
or perhaps chunked the nose cone?
starter question?

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

re: starter question?
The only differance in the starters is the nose cone where it bolts to the motor... Unbolt the one off of the 302 and bolt it on the FE starter and you have it...

If it Looks good and Works good then it's ok by me. Everything has its issues from time to time...
