Subject: light, cheap starter

I just received the nippondenso starter that I ordered from Surplus Center.
(Surplus Center.com.)
It was originally meant for snowmobiles, weighs 7 lbs. and cost the grand sum
of $18.99.
The gear meshes perfectly with the flywheel gear and it turns the correct
direction. They have
about 350 of these left. Tracy- does this give you any ideas about some sort
of standardized
starter for your redrive? You could buy a bunch of them for that price and
include them with the
redrive( with appropriate markup, of course.)

    Brian,
      Does this starter have a gear reduction or is it direct drive? It will
 need to be geared like the stock starter to start the 13B. IMHO
