Well it is like this she is getting plum wore out and since it has had a diet of EITHER SHE GO OR EITHER SHE BLOW more then likely she had broken rings and wore out liners and lacking proper compression , bad injectors , valves not seating right / out of adjustment an yes your starter is not turning it fast enough .It has been now what 45-46 years since i have worked on a Detroit . Been around them since 1961 and from the start they were and engine that was always needing work not real long life , Did not have any lugging ability as long as you could keep them screaming and not have them drop more then 500 RPM they were ok .

My one friend and could rebuild one half of a 318 in and evening then do the other side the next and not miss out on a day's work .
