I've just had occasion to replace the starter motor on my ZS 180. It's
immediately apparent that the new one is much quieter and cranks noticeably
faster than the old one. When I first had the car I felt that cranking it
sounded much like my MGBs, i.e. significantly noisier than other 'modern' cars
heard round and about. It's almost as quiet as a geared starter, but not
quite.
The motor is externally identical to the modern 'Hi Torque' non-geared MGB
replacements from the likes of Moss etc., which is about half the price of an
MGB OE (and about a quarter the price of a geared) as well as significantly
lighter and smaller than an OE. All as advertised, so I'd have no problems
about using this type on my MGBs in place of an OE.
