I open today a box with a lot of screws for the bendix spring (starter).
Most of the screws are marked; Bendix USA and a number,some other are marked Ford.Who see this before?
Thanks

The "Ford" marked ones might be OK, depending on how they came packaged and the size etc. I've seen "F" and "Ford" marked bolts, and have heard of bolts marked with part numbers being removed.

Is it correct to assume that someone sent you some used GPW-11377/WO-A-1578 Bendix Spring screws? Also, GPW Engines left the Ford factory with either Auto-Lite or Ford marked starters.
