i got a ac delco in my 08 when the oem went out and it's been good so far
I put the ac delco one in mine 2nd gen last year and it’s been fine.
splurged on a new AC Delco that lasted three months.
For anyone having this issue with a 454 7.4L Big Block Chevy Starter; PLEASE get a NEW ACDELCO starter with brand new knurled bolts from NAPA. I’ve had this side for months where my starter pinion would get stuck to my flywheel and grind till my flywheel shaved.
I went through 3 autozone starters in a year one ac Delco 4 years ago and it's still starts easy and quiet
Went with the ACDelco, and it starts great! No grinding or clunking, so it didn't need to be shimmed. Thank you all for the assistance!
Ive just put the 3rd starter on my truck ('94 f150 w/351w) in about 2.5 years. All Delcos sense thats all I can get quickly here. The first one quite entirely and the last one still spun but would not engage the flywheel.
Took me 20 minutes to install. High quality. Zero problems.
Denso, Bosch, and ACDelco are all OE parts suppliers for various car manufacturers and remans can be found for under $200 online even including the core charge which you'll get back when you send the old starter in.
