− | There is a fix for engine blocks that have unrepairable cracks or breaks where the starter mounts to the block. Shown below is an adaptor plate and spacer that can be used to mount the early type bellhousing mounted starter to a later block. It can save a block that would be otherwise either junk or requiring expensive and time consuming welding to fix. Ecklers (possibly others as well) also sells an adaptor plate similar to the one shown under p/n 19-68. | + | There is a fix for engine blocks that have unrepairable cracks or breaks where the starter mounts to the block.
