Hi Tony & all, I used an aftermarket high torque starter on a 392 hemi with 10.5:1 compression it turned it over so easily and at an incredible rpm! Now I have just fitted an original rebuilt unit into my C for the original look, no comparison, much slower to turn over and more of a "struggle". My friend down here in New Zealand will build up any starter at all in a 1, 1.5 , or 2 KV unit. He uses an atfermarket high torque motor and machines up the end housing for the application. He sent me the 1.5 unit for the 392 saying it would be more than enough, and was it ever! The cost was about $175US, worth every penny. The only drawback is these units look nothing like original, I asked him if it was possible to somehow combine the two starters, old look, new performance. He said it was not. My two cents worth....

Hi to all, I have found a source that will produce a high speed starter replacement if there is enough interest. I am on the 3rd rebuilt original starter on my 300-F. We would not need the 100 or so numbers that we had on the Coker Tire Project but the more the interest the less the cost. Please "reply all" so that the thread of comments can be read by everyone. Is there a need? Is there an interest? In what price range would you consider purchasing a replacement? Maybe we can keep that original starter for Concours!
