I know folks use the hi-torque modern starters, but to me they just don't sound right. Now I know that is silly - but I like the sound of the original starter. Probably nothing wrong with that route - just haven't ran one on a flathead before. Have you pulled the current starter and looked at the bendix, spring, etc?
