Chevy starter issues

Final note-- I checked at the lower corner of the right head, there is a flat woven ground strap that runs from the head surface directly to the frame. The other leg of this flat woven strap attaches to a dedicated body ground at the lower corner of the heater/AC box. This thing is definitely grounded! I never really cared for the side post battery when it came out about 1970 or so. The positive post seems to leak, corroding the connector and the terminal inside the battery. Often they break off all by themselves. Another thing to get rid of,I suppose.
