I'm building my 408 stroker and have it assembled on the engine run stand. I noticed that the Hooker headers run about 1/4" from the starter and wondering if I would have a heat issue. Do people run a heat shield for this, or should I consider a different starter? Also, with the starter mounted, and that temporary mounting plate, I was trying to get the starter positioned correctly to start the engine. The engine has not been started yet. When I do engage the starter, it turns the flywheel but the starter gear remains engaged with the flywheel. Will this automatically disengage when the engine starts or should I look to adjust the starter? Any experience or input on this is helpful.
Thanks,
Brian
