Just curious on your starter selection. I am researching that now and considering the ac delco 12617229 (about $120) along with the camero heat shield 12629286. The solenoid has a square plug instead of a stud terminal but I found the connector parts at Mouser. Did you come across any reason why the that starter would not work? Let us know who is dealing on the one you went with... from what I have seen they are awfully proud of those in the $350-450 range..
