Not Ranked
So I emailed CVR and now they say this:
"On Fords bell housing are matched to ring gear/flywheel. We manufacture
three different types of starters. One with the distance of 2" from
mounting surface to tip of pinion gear. The other one is 2-3/8". The
one that goes out 2-3/8" is a 5055 and 5048. 5048 differs from the 5055
because one hole on the flange is threaded. The 5055 neither hole is
threaded. The one that goes out 2" is a 5056.
1. Which starter did you purchase? If this does not help you do you
have the OEM number of the starter that you require?
2. Is your flywheel correctly matched with your bell housing?"
So my question hear is would 3/8" inch made that big of a difference? I am not sure, but whatever goes back in will match and will not bind or drag. I just have to figure which is the right one.
