Starter Recommendation

[JJRJR]

Hey guys,

Putting the 440 into my 69 Runner with TTI headers. The Power Master starter we have is a REALLY tight fit. Any body with similar combination can recommend a better fitting starter using the TTI's?

Thanks,

John

I think they are all tight fits. their definition of infinitely clockable leaves a lot to be desired also

I bought a dodge Dakota starter for a 318 motor, it's basically a mini starter and fits great. I have TTI headers on a 383

I too bought a Dakota starter in the late 1990's and it leaves plenty of room for my Hedman headers. It is still there to this day.

yeah but there's nuthin as sweet sounding and iconic as a gear reduction Chrysler starter.

the Dakota starter is the best!--I had a 383 dart and the starter went 3 times in 3 years--with headers, just to hot! bought a hi tork Dakota starter and it lasted for years till I restored the car and put back the stock ex manfolds!the starter was and still is good!I sold a road runner that its in and its still there--aleast the last car show in sept it was! and that car has headers--I built a heat shield for it too--on the stock starter!

the starter went bad on mine right after I got the car in '07. put an old fashioned gear reduction on, and it's still there.

I love that sound too and I wanted to keep mine but with my headers it was just too much hassle.

got headers on mine, no hassle at all in 8 years. mine has studs for the headers, I had to take one out, and the header moved enough and the starter fell out.
