220cca cranks over a toyota camry. unless your verada is 12:1 compression i would say 400 would handle it easy. sorry mate but im gonna say youve done something wrong on the install. from your description it sounds like the old starter did a better job than the new one, so youre gonna have to look back on whats happened.
now first off, did you bench-test the new starter. if not, take it off. stick the jump leads on your battery, clamp earth to the body of the starter and touch + to the terminal the start wire goes to. this will engage the solenoid. ie itll push the gear down the shaft. try that a couple of times and watch that its rapid, smooth ie. doesnt bind and travels all the way to the end of the shaft.
ok now we stick the + jumper onto the large bolt, then bridge the start wire to the + lead. this will activated the whole starter. the gear will spin and the solenoid will engage.
this should all happen really fast. the starter will jump and skip all over the place. if it doesnt then take it back.
so once youve bench tested it you can rule that out.
