Re: starter bb chevy
Steve, we run a 402 BB in our car and we use a GM Performance Parts starter. We have had it in and out of the car a bunch of times and have never exerienced any problems with starter to block alignment or starter to flywheel alignment issues. Actually been pretty happy with it.

Re: starter bb chevy
If you do actually have a 142 tooth flywheel I don't think there is a starter available. Normal Chevy tooth count is 153 or 168. If it is either of those would suggest looking at the one from robbmcperformance.com

Re: starter bb chevy
Our car has a 168 tooth flywheel. I probably would crawl under the car and count the teeth to make sure. The number of teeth matters when it comes to selecting a starter.
