305E starter part number anyone?

[MrHenryJ]

Does anyone have a correct starter part number for a 305E? bought the one from autozone and it's wrong one I took out says 1107259 3 M 12 by delco

When I replaced my starter in 2008 with a lifetime guarantee from NAPA, the part number was 46-4078 which is now an obsolete part number. Running the part number through NAPA's Interchange application, I come up with four different options at NAPA priced from $85-$124 depending on whether they are re-manufactured or new. See these at http://tinyurl.com/d73ssx8.

The Correct AutoZone part number is DL4346S. They have it for $59.99 re-manufacturer with plus a $10 core charge. And yes, the starter for our GMC V6 engines is the same as one for some later model Chevrolet motors. Hope this helps.

Thank you fine sir! I will post back when I pick it up and see if it goes on and works. Autozone couldnt get it either could pepboys. Napa sent me an email saying they will reserve it at the warehouse and call me when it come in.

Napa didn't make me very happy. They said it woud be in on MOnday then Wednesday then Thursday then finially on Friday it showedd up. 10 minutes after getting it home it was in truck and fires up like a champ. I took the old one apart and Im not sure how it was even working. all the plastic arms in front were cracked and two had a washer melted in between the two of them holding them in place. The bushng was completely gone. But part number was correct for Napa and it works awesome starts way better than before.
