RAC407 Powerlite High Torque Starter Motor

It has 9 teeth, operates at 12 V and weighs 3.80 kg. The stated fitments are Ford Essex V4, Ford Essex V6 and TVR Essex V6.

Powerlite describes its starter motors as direct replacements for original units, requiring no vehicle modifications. They work with positive and negative polarity, except for the Slimeline Range. The compact, lightweight units are often easier to install than original units, and are modified where necessary to aid fitment.

The product information describes increased cranking speeds and more cranking power than original units, while drawing less current from the battery. It also identifies road competition applications, particularly tuned engines and adverse conditions that require extra starter-motor performance.
