The one on our TR6 came from Gustafson Machine
<http://gustafsonspecialty.com/> http://gustafsonspecialty.com/  via a local
mechanic 15 years years ago. Our GT6 has one that I bought from Ted
Schumacher at the VTR show in New Jersey several years ago. They work great.

I bought my TR6 and TR3 starters from British Starters at Stowe,
a couple of years back:

Works great!

I forget the details offhand, but Ted claimed some years ago that his were
improved to help them last in high vibration (racing) environments.
Something about the wires in the solenoid, and epoxy I think.

The one I got from TRF many years ago did fail after about 10 years of daily
driver service; but it wasn't a wiring problem.  Heat from the exhaust
apparently cooked all the grease out of the bearings, then I probably
splashed through a puddle and got it wet.  We occasionally get "mini floods"
around here where the streets are full to the top of the curb with rain
water.  Anyway, the bearing balls were rusty and closer to square than
round.  Since I never got around to installing the Stag unit I got from Ted,
I used parts from it to fix the TR3 one from TRF.  Not absolutely identical,
but close enough that everything interchanged, except the model-specific
mounting plate and pinion gear.

True about the wire stabilization.  There were some experiencing failure from vibration, no matter the supplier.  The wire breaks inside the unit.  It was recommended to me to injected silicone gasket maker around these wires.  I don't recall exactly where, but I think it was between the solenoid and the motor windings. It was a simple solution to a possible or eventual problem.  7 years later, 19 race events and 5500 miles, all good.
