The high-output starter from Max Banks has been installed.
Some may recall that on the Saturday morning of the Monte Shelton Rally that with 49 F overnight on the Oregon Coast there was a starting problem.
Battery was good, and the 1600 starter had been rebuilt, but it could not turn the 2 L over quickly enough to fire. A start with about five pushers was required until someone noticed that the hand brake was on --a little. Pictures were circulated.
The new starter required some machining of the outer case to clear something down there, and some flat-head bolts rather than the allen head.
Although rebuilt, the 1600 starter was getting almost hopeless--even at 60 F. The new one spins over real fast, and starts the engine instantly.
