Where are you getting your starter from Rich? I ordered a "new" one from Dale Junior but they really don't have new ones, just remans.

Also, if you are thinking of putting Kooks headers on you may want to hold off on the new plug wires until you get the new headers on. I've been reading where you may need a little more length on the wires if you use Kooks. Guys on the CTS V Owners site have used both Stainless Works and Kooks and report both excellent headers, but the Kooks have a bit more girth. I was recommended Stainless Works as they are direct fit also.

You might need to use the transmission jack under the engine and lift it a bit. That's how I had to get my starter and motor mount out. May give you a little clearance on that header too.
