Not Ranked
A common problem with FE's and the OEM starters is the remote solenoid often becomes compromised when the buss bar inside gets arcd up from heavy aprege demands from the OEM starter. The heat soak causes the problem to be more severe. Many of the modern small starters have the solenoid on the starter motor and are epoxy encapsulated, they require much less amperege, and with gear reduction achieve the similar or more torque as the OEM type starters, are smaller and take up less room, thus are further from the headers.
1. Get a small Hitachi or similar starter
2. Bypass the OEM Ford type starter solenoid.
You will be happy.
