With all this talk of amps and batteries I went out to check mine.

Original! Who else can say that?

Like Sean, I use a 650-amp battery intended for a 4-cylinder Toyota MR-2.
With a McLeod mini-starter, it fires a smoking-hot 10-1/2:1 compression 351C
1st or 2nd turn. It will NOT allow you to endlessly crank an engine that has
starting problems, though. Which may be a good thing!

At least 800 I think but my current one is 650 and it works fine.A  For
   hot starts, the extra amps could be handy. Are you in Tamps?A  I'm
   vacationing in St. Pete this and next week.
