I had a hot starting problem a long time ago. I moved the battery from the front trunk to the Euro location in front of the right rear wheel, essentially putting it where it is in most cars in relation to the electrical system and engine. I left the long cable to the front trunk intact and connected--when I have battery trouble I can jump start or charge the battery from the front trunk and don't have to remove the wheel or splash guard.

Pantera Parts Connection has been stocking and selling the IMI Hi Tourque Starters for years now.
The Hot starting problem is only with D-0AZ 1970 and D1AZ 1971 blocks. It has something to do with the way the early blocks were cast. I have changed early long blocks in and out re-using everything from the earlier installation overnight to make the morning Race Grid only to have or not to have a Hot start problem with the changing of the Long block.

They the owner (Jack Isom) is obsessive about quality. Jack has a special relationship with Denso, and they have come to him when they can't figure out how to make something work. Jack is also one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. He has sold starters to one of the vendors in the past, and knows exactly what you need. Ken

The two most common solutions offered were timing adjustment and bad solenoid on the starter. I've adjusted the timing and she's running like raped ape, but still has the hard start. So, I need to replace my mini starter (solenoid is integral). I see a number of them on Ebay for prices that only say "too good to be true". What does the collective have as a recommendation? Thanks in advance.
