No available Starter work around;
As I'm sure most of you are aware there haven't been any over the counter starters for quite a while. Lately many have posted about new starters being available, however, this is not the case. For some time now several parts vendors have incorrectly listed a Chevrolet six starter as an OHC 6 application.
But don't despair the Chevy starter can be simply modified to work. This is only advised if you have NO rebuildable starter. You will need a good double cut burr to cut the nose cone for fly/flex wheel clearance. The images below are of a Chev 6 starter I am cutting for clearance. This one still needs approximately 3/16 to a 1/4 but you get the idea.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
