Those 1100 starters also had problems with the brush plate not grounding correctly (inside the starter).. It pays to add a regular grounding wire from the brush plate to the starter housing (inside the starter) as the original rivets are prone to having high resistance & causing either a slow starter or no starter..

Thats right on the nail advice. Also the rivets often came loose and caused burnt spots on the plate, resulting in similar slow starting problems.
