Title: high torque starter
Post by: Fordhabit on August 21, 2009, 12:35:23 PM
It's time for a new starter on my 84 and I want to go with a high torque starter.  Does anyone know if I can use one off a late model mustang?
Thanks

I was snooping around cars at the yard some time ago,and found a brand new mini starter on a '96 Explorer.Got it for $5.00 (if I pulled it....which I did).I moved the battery cable over to the opposite side of the starter solenoid,and added a smaller wire to the starter and the starter solenoid (where the original battery cable started out).Done.Lot's lighter,more powerful,easier exhaust access and cheap (I was lucky).One thing I did have to get used to was the Mopar sound.LOL.
