Default Re: 69 big block starter heat shield

The one on my Nova is galvanized.I can see why some guys threw them out. Despited installing a new solenoid last spring there were still a few times when I had to wait for the BB to cool down before the starter would engage!

My L34 survivor built 9B of 68 had one and my 69L78 built 6A of 69 had the remnants of one. I Still have a piece from the 6A car and will check what it is made of, but I believe it is stainless.
