You might have been able to solve your starting problem by going to a 3.75"1 ratio starter. 25% more cranking speed.

Have you put your car on a dyno to see what your HP gain might be after you went with injection and the latest ignition system ? |
Unfortunately that starter motor configuration (larger portion closer to the flywheel) doesn’t fit great on my car. I tried the Powermaster 9410 and had to send it back because we couldn’t get it clocked right to fit well. The Powermaster I used has the larger portion of the motor further away from the flywheel… if that makes sense.
I plan on putting the TA on the hub dyno within the next month or so. I don’t think it makes any additional power with the EFI. I probably lost a few horsepower going from a Dominator and Victor to a Northwind. Maybe I picked a little bit of it up going to E85 but I kind of doubt it. With the old set-up it ran around 129-130 mph in the 1/4 @3700’ish pounds. I’m thinking it makes in the 630hp - 650hp range.
