What I can tell you is that it`s been starting my 12.1.1 comp. BB for years w/locked out timing. It`s out of a Dakota iirc.

ok, I was looking at the powermaster mini and wondered how much better it is than the mopar mini.

It seem the noses on the afterMarket ones are what is better. Billet instead of cast, helps with kick back and breaking starter nose.

I guess I should have asked how much better the promaster 9500 series was vs the mopar mini starter.

ThumperI agree . My reman mini from Advanced has been in over 15 years.It cranks my 12.5 440 like a /6.There is a difference in minis.Some are stronger cranking.I run one for a 360 Truck from say 98 or 99.Paid a lot for my reman back then.It was 75 bucks.Have a 440 S

There is a guy that sells starters at the Indy trade show next month. If you put the mini on a big block, you will need the adapter that puts the battery cable away from the side of the block.

I removed the terminal chingas from my mini and have room no problem for the cable..............close but still clears.

I agree with that also.Just take the adapter off.I cut my big stud down a bit so it cleared even more.Man people like to buy stuff they dont need.Even on a tight block that touches just cut the stud a bit or grind the block a tad.Ive installed at least 15 and only had clearance problem on one.Rocky

I use a stock mini to start my 572. Crank trigger, no retard, 34*, 14.8-1. I start it with ignition turned on while cranking. No issues.

If it has a rear mounted battery then wiring / ground issues will cause a slow starter as well. Aftermarket starter may just be a bandaid...

This is why I ran my #1 batt. cable to a bulkhead on the firewall then ran my alt. and starter wires directly to it. It fires right up, has 14.7 volts at idle and no more issues..........
