The High-torque, gear-reduction design Buick 455 Starter has a 12V, 2.2KW motor and a torque ratio of 15:1. This PROFORM Starter is 100% NEW, not rebuilt with remanufactured parts! Offset design results in more clearance between the oil pan and the starter, and can be rotated for additional chassis clearance in 166 Tooth Flywheels. The high-torque, high-output motor spins the engine over faster than stock starters, delivering 40-50% more cranking power. 3.75-to-1 sealed gear-reduction drive and full ball bearing construction. Includes shims to set pinion-gear engagement (when necessary).
