[DeTomaso] Minimum colt cranking amps 351C

[gudmund frøland]

I have 2 Pantera. One 72 mod and one 74 mod. The 74 are rebuild 408 CID the 72 I believe are original. Both have original starter. The 72 hardly crank over but 74 turn over easy? Fresh battery on both. Always wonder on how it could be such a different?--------------------------------------------

 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.
