Thoughts on starter?
For an early model 1999 7.3 would we go PowerMaster HT starter? or Mean Green Machine HT starter? Or is there another one that is better in your opinion?
Thank you in advance, appreciate the responses.

Mine went out on a road trip and had to slap in a reman unit from the parts store......that was 9 years ago.
i would get a Denso except when mine does go out again it has a lifetime warranty... damn Autozone

Mine has gone 300,000 miles and over twenty years now. When and if it goes out, I'll bring it to a shop and get it rebuilt.

There is a thread about the conversion in this forum. I bought a 19k mile 6.7 starter from a salvage yard for $50 and then did the conversion. I like the starter.

I would honestly reccomend a denso style 7.3 replacement starter. Doesn't take 2 starters to make one can csn get one about anywhere. Spins over just as fast as well. I've had a Napa one on mine for 6 years or so c

I really like my Denso from CNC Fabrication, but also trust that the 6.7L starter mod is a worthy adventure.
