Whether it is hot or cold out, or your engine has lots of cubic inches or high compression, the starter in your muscle car, classic truck, or hot rod has the tough task of spinning over your engine fast enough for the fuel and air mixture to be ignited by your ignition system. This takes roughly 400-500 rpms and if the starter cannot give you enough rpm you are not going anywhere. We all have heard that big block struggling to start at the end of the cruise night and if you don’t want to suffer the same embarrassing fate you need to upgrade your stock starter to a modern high-torque mini starter. The mini starter design uses the internal gear to be able to provide higher rpm cranking no matter the operational conditions. Now you can crank that high-compression LS engine without crossing your fingers when you twist your ignition key! Ready to Handle Your LS Engine’s Cranking Needs The benefits of utilizing a gear starter are great. So much so that all the OE vehicle manufacturers have upgraded to similar high-performance starters beginning in the late 1990s. Chances are your daily driver uses just such a unit. They upgraded for the very same reasons you should—less weight, more room/access, and more starting power

  • High-Torque Performance: Powerful 3.0 HP motor delivers strong cranking output and turns over LS engines up to 11:1 compression with ease.
  • Durable Construction: Features an all-steel internal gear assembly and a billet aluminum mounting block engineered for long-lasting strength and reliability.
  • Wide LS Engine Compatibility: Fits 1997+ Gen III and Gen IV LS engines including LS1, LS2, LS3, LS9, LSA, plus 1999+ Vortec 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L and 6.2L truck engines.
  • Compact Clockable Design: Small case size and multi-position clocking provide extra clearance for long-tube headers, tight chassis
  • Flexible Transmission Fit: Works with manual or automatic transmissions and is designed for 168-tooth LS flexplates/flywheels; ideal for LS swaps and OE replacements.
