Title: Which starter
Post by: BOOST on June 01, 2016, 07:32:33 PM
I'm undecided on which starter to go with Power Master 9502 or IMI 2902 M  price difference between the 2 is $100 which I'm not worried about any input on any other's that worked well Thanks.

I had great luck with the MSD starter. The only draw back was the price.

Well I believe the 3 starters that were mentioned are all good only really difference I see is the IMI can rotate 360 for clearances

My stock starter has staggered mount. I was doing some research and it looks like the block has strait mounting holes and staggered but I'm not 100% sure

Staggered holes maybe for to different flywheels 153 or 168 tooth
