MSD 5098 Details

The new DynaForce Starter is designed to crank over the highest compression engines on a hot day in Death Valley. Not that too many race cars are sitting in Death Valley, but it’s good to know that you have the oomph to make it happen. The DynaForce Starter features all new components beginning with a three horsepower motor. This power is used to crank over the reduced 4.4:1 gear set to deliver great torque to the engine’s ring gear to get the engine turning. The armature is balanced during assembly and is guided by two ball bearings for smooth engagement and thousands of starts. The downsized housing clears most headers and oil pans. The assembly is powder coated MSD red and will stay looking good, even though it’s underneath your car.

The Chrysler version is a compact replacement for everything from small blocks to 440 engines.

Gear reduction of 4.4:1
3 horsepower motor
Ball bearing supported armature and pinion gear
Downsized design helps clearance issues with oil pans and exhaust
