need help with case study project
in my auto class I'm doing a case study project on automotive starters, so me and my group are trying to create a scnerio involving an engine swap of 2 SBC's, using the 2 diffrent SBC flywheels, the 153 tooth and 168 tooth, so 1 of the motors would have the 153 tooth, the other a 168 tooth, where the installer used the same starter ( obviously grinding up the flywheel ). but what is 1 vehicle with a 168 tooth, and 1 with a 153 tooth?, so I can say the motor was swapped was this, to this.You don't know what you've got til it's gone

dont forget the heat shield either... the starter tends to not crank when the engine is hot and the heat shield is missingjust because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day

Both of your 350's are internally balanced engines.
Neither, it’s in a friend’s hot rod and we’re curious
