Reduction / Hi Torque Starter Motors

[Rossco]

Hi, thanks for all the feedback. It turned out that he starter on the car was out of a later model anyway. After some rediculous pricing and quotes I have ended up with a reduction starter (basically the same body) with an offset solenoid. These units are made with the view that as cars get older and people replace standard exhausts with aftermarket headers as the genuine is getting harder to find. All up, the starter was $230 exchange. Given that I was quoted up to $490 I am happy to have something that works straight up and solves my problem. cheers

when i rebuilt my motor i got a new starter from coventrys ( wa ) and it was to suit a vt onwards holden 5.0L. it's alot smaller and is a reduction starter. :thumbsup: alot more powerful than the original old one and sounds cool cranking over too!!

Thanks in advance
