Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / General Car Topics / May 2005350 small block starter noise!!!
I have a 55 Chevy wagon that I installed a Mildly Modified 350. My problem is when I start the car I am embarrassed by all the noise. The starter noise is awful. I bought a new starter, made no difference. Yes I shimmed it to specs and then expermented, made no difference. I’m guessing the only thing left is the ring gear. Although it sure doesn’t look bad or I don’t know what to look for. Any help sure would be appreciated. Ron Can you describe the noises? Any other symptoms while using the starter? Klunks, thumbs, clicks, bangs? Grinding noises? Whining noises? Can full of rocks noises? >I have a 55 Chevy wagon that I installed a Mildly Modified 350.

Whining noise may describe some of it. There are no other systems like Klunks, thumbs, clicks or bangs. LOL! They make two starters for the engine, one is a 'normal' direct drive and the other is a gear reduction unit that goes wing wing wing wing wing then vrom when the normal one goes arung, arung, then vrom.
