[TR] Tr3a High Torque Starter

[TERRY SMITH]

I bought mine from one of the Big Three.  They're light, easy to install and pop the engine right over.  Mine ran about 8 years or thereabouts of daily driving in spring/summer/fall.  Had it rebuilt locally and still use it. 


Everyone, do I remember correctly (it's been awhile) that there's a difference on the type of hi torque starter depending on the type of bell housing you have?

What is the collective recommendations on a high torque starter?  I have found a number of ones running in the $195USD range….
