What’s yalls go to Starter for modifieds up to 320cc’s

[Williambrooks4013]

bbt/jeggs/Burris/Coleman anything I didn't mention? I'm not sure what's the most popular or which has the most cranking amps.

 

["J'-remy]

cranking amps are in the battery not the starter. they pretty much all use the same motor/gearbox my preference is the BBT you can get different battery configurations from him.

Not a Coleman .

 

[1fasttiller]

They all use a NipponDenso gear reducted (Automobile) starters which is more than capable of starting any single cylinder kart engine no matter how big. Its the battery that you want to pay attention to and choose correctly to meet the needs.

I use Coleman starters for all my open 2 and 4 stroke engines. What is really important as 1fasttiller states above is the battery and even more the cable you are using. Even a good battery with the wrong weak cables won't work properly.

 

[CarlsonMotorsports]

I've got all 3 brands here in the shop (we used BBT on our our stuff at the track.)
The key (as said above) is the battery CCA. If I've got a big engine on the dyno, out come the jumper cables and a car battery. Never fails.
