I just installed 2 of these.... bang for buck!
And 2 of these... both marine:)

Summit and Jegs are each only an hour away/one day shipping and I buy a lot from them. Mostly Summit.

They can't touch these prices though. All 4 for about 300 bucks to my door.

nice find. Looks like they just rebuilt a buch of merc cores, or they reverse engineered them in China??

I think I will order some and try them out.

Nice find but will they eat the teeth off the flywheel. Tried a couple of other brands that shimming just wouldn't cure.

Proper marine starters are not rust proof, they are source of ignition proof. Sealed solenoids and brush housings. Be very careful using a car starter in your boat.

I have had better luck with getting mine rebuilt. Find a good auto electic shop, they can rebuild the stock unit better than new. Then you do not have to worry about shimming issues and broken flywheel teeth.
