REFLECTOR: Starter: B&C or SkyTec

[Keith Hallsten]

Chuck,

 

The general consensus seems to be that both will spin your motor.  I'm using
a B&C Products starter because of their long-standing reputation for
excellent products.  

 

The field-wound SkyTec starters are a relatively new product, but seem to be
working out fine in the field.  They don't reek of quality in quite the same
way that B&C starters do, but they are a little cheaper.  They do seem to be
better built than the older PM designs that SkyTec still makes.

 

There's one man's perspective - YMMV.

What's the current concensus on starters?  BNC or SkyTec HTI (hy torque
in-line, or some such)?  I'm not interested in the PM Skytec but was trying
to choose between the non-PM (permanent magnet) starters?
