1987 Chevy Truck
----------------------------------------------------------------
This 87 Chevy C20 step-side truck came out with a V6 engine(I believe) Someone replaced the original engine with a 305. There have been several items replaced on the truck that have worked with the 305 engine. Had to replace the radiator with a V6 one. The starter has been replaced many, many times. It has been shimmed, the fly wheel was replaced and still the starters will quit after approx. 10 cranks. One of the starters had the teeth eaten off. None of the starters sounded good from the beginning of being replaced. They either make a clicking sound or sound like when your trying to crank a vehicle and it's already cranked. Is something out of line, do I need to buy a starter from Chevrolet, what is happening?
Please, please help![img:e22ab67cdd]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/205108_87_CHEVY_C20_TRUCK_004_1.jpg[/img:e22ab67cdd]
