Mini starters

[J-440]

  Does any company make a mini starter that will slip right through the hole of some TTI headers for a 440? My Powermaster mini starter finally took a crap and I separated that thing into 3 pieces to pull it out.  I really don't want to loosen the header to install the newer starter.  Thanks.

That's a good question,  space gets tight with headers.   This is something always on my mind because if the starter were to fail on the road, your in for some serious fun to replace it on the fly.   

I'm interested to see what might be new out there

I can't say which ones will fit, but I can say the one from DB electrical on EBay doesn't fit.

Your best bet is probably the RobbMc Mini starter. Pricy though: https://www.robbmcperformance.com/products/mopar_starter.html

I had to remove my header to get my old starter out and the mini starter in.  I have no idea what type of headers I have.

On an only-barely-related topic, are the mini starter heat shields any use?  Do they actually lengthen the period between changing out starters due to heat damage?

I don't know of any starter that would be compact enough to do that, but it would be cool if there was one.

I just installed a mini starter, and it would not fit between my TTI headers. I cannot see that any starter would.
