POWERMASTERStarter, PowerMAX Plus, 6.1:1 Gear Reduction, Natural, 153/168 Tooth Flywheel, Straight Bolt, Chevy V8, Each

Product is excellent, lightweight and much easier to install without a rack. As this is probably my 50th starter install on old muscle cars, both for my builds and customer builds, I did the stupid thing and didn't read the instructions. The 1971 El Camino has a roller 383 stroker, and an external Ford Solenoid from previous installs. I wired it like i would always wire it, with a jumper wire. Thank God on the first start attempt i heard the starter stay engaged, and shut it off. Went back and read the instructions and yep, these PMGR starters only require a 10-12GA wire from the load side of the Ford Solenoid down to the S terminal on the Powermaster Starter's solenoid. So its a simple move of the 2 gauge battery cable from the load side to the battery side (kind of a bitch getting both battery cables on), but as soon as i wired the 10GA wire from load side down, it fired up and continues to fire up perfectly every time. Great product, will buy many more in the future.

Cheap, spins my engine over plenty fast 10.3:1 355, low profile for headers and dual bolt pattern for both flex plates, been using for 2 years now no problem just make sure you check clearance on flexplate gear should be about .035, pry the gear out of the starter ( with battery cable disconnected or else your manually engaging the silonoid and it will turn engine over) and shove a piece of .035 welding wire inbetween gears to check clearance

Need shim but come with

I needed something a little smaller than stock for my third gen firebird engine swap. I went from the stock 305 with manifolds to a 383 with Hooker shorty headers. This unit was perfect. Small, powerful, and able to clock however you need. Whips the stroker over like nothing. I am only at 11:1 compression, but I suspect this would be good for much higher due to the gear reduction. Installed easily, works great.

Been on my camaro for about a couple of months now and start up everytime without fail, I'll recommend this starter 👌.
