Why add un necessary complications and circuits to the car. More things to fail and cause problems. All you need a good and strong starter motor like the ones I make. They are Bosch Planetary Geared ones. No hesitation there. They wind engine over like it has no compression. Regardless the advance. Ask may people who I have sol;d one to. Like Matt at Warwick for his race car. and yes they still fit behind the oil cooler. They are a starter motor that was originally designed and used on a 4.1 Ltr engine and believe it or not they are lighter than the Lucas M35 unit.
Well for anyone that wants to spend $20 on a delay circuit instead I have drawn one up and am willing to build them and sell them to people.
Put between the fuse and the coil supply, it has a 10 amp relay and is triggered off a 'start' signal or the wire to the starter solenoid.
Approx overall size 30mm x 14mm x 25mm so easily hidden away somewhere, fully water proof, simply 'plug and play'.
If anyone is interested just send me a pm...
