High Performance Gear Reduction Mini Starter
Quality - Value- Service
Gear reduction or "mini starters" offer many advantages over the old direct-drive starters. They are lighter, smaller and often can be rotated or adjusted on how they mount in order to avoid interference oversize oil pans, cross members, and especially headers. In the case of GM engines many designs allow for the starter to be used with both 153 tooth and 168 tooth flywheels. For Ford, GM, and Dodge there are late model gear reduction starters that retrofit on most popular early engine families.
The options are nearly endless for these starters, especially the starters for GM engines. New starters are available in different power ratings (rated in kw or hp) and usually come in plain and chrome finish options.
