Hope you all can help I to have 460 with c6 and I am having starter issues. I have another post regarding this how can I tell if my plate is bad. Can I have the plate fixed, because the starter is loud and I am tired of replacing them.

you know I was looking through a bunch of old shop manuals. They sell a starter shim for the 460. I was wondering if you don't have the plate could you use that shim on the starter to keep the clearance right. I thought it was a great idea,but like everything else might be to good to be true

So I'm still looking for one. Maybe if I keep at this post, someone will find one they don't need.

I finally found one. I'm sure I could find another one. But it would be an automatic.

Also you can get one from autozone. They are 80 bucks but they are twice as thick and may help out on the 460 swap.

I ordered this but was looking for a bellhousing.
