man what a difference a high torque starter makes on a 11:1 motor. i had a powermaster factory replacement on there from the previous motor that was a 9:1 compression and i got theyre top of the line one that puts out liek 265 ftlbs (4.4:1) reduction and the motor starts in liek a half second vs cranking on it for like 2 seconds!!! im so happy with this! :)

i had a powermaster starter before (lightweigtht /stock replacment was 8.5 lbs) this one will crank a 18:1 motor over and weighs 10.5 lbs, i need to yank 2 lbs from somewhere
