Thanks everybody.. Sorry my description of the issue is a little foggy. Im thinking its a power issue the more i dig into trouble shooting. The starter is the original one and no modifications have been made to it. When i'm attempting to describe the issue of what i'm calling a "flat spot". The starter does spin and so does the motor its just slower and makes a completely different sound. Its like gravel rolling around in a tumbler. If teeth on the fly or the starter were worn or missing the drive gear on the starter would show evidence of that. I haven't noticed anything like that, neither has my mechanic or the electrical rebuild shop. Thanks for the replacement part number on the starter. I didn't think those were available any more new. I still have my original alternator and will check that as well. If i wanted to modernize that part and get rid of all the auxiliary stuff that the original has, what part number am i looking for?

Thanks for all your reply's!
