Starting my GT-500 has become a drag!
By Morgan - 02/13/2001 1:59:55 PM; IP 64.167.44.172
Well, it's become a real drag starting my 67 GT-500. Cold or hot it does not matter, the starter turns real slow before the motor kicks over. first I thought it might be that Delco battery that is in it. But had the system load tested and every thing checks out fine. So that leads me to believe that its the starter.

Where do I go from here? If I am going to buy a starter I thought then why not buy a high torque starter. I called about a Mean Green starter, BUT thats $310.00! Is it worth it? does any other manufacturer make a Hi-torque starter for the Ford FE. Hey any other input would be great.
