I've put a starter-motor to an elec leaf blower & installed it in the 68 GTO...took it out because the relay would juice the motor over bumps, causing fuel spray all over the Q-JET.. Too scary when the throttle plates are closed//cruisin.

Got the assy (pretty much a 1/2hour bolt-on) sitting for another try after I clear-up some EXH issues, and get 1/4 mile times.
================================================== ===
Such item was my "secret weapon" to go from 450HP to 650 HP on-demand, to reach 10.0 ET on that 12.90 combo below compression. Not dead yet, just time-compromized.
