More pics and article on the build on page 40.

They are made using 1.2KW denso starters. For you guys with Jeep 327s, this is a Godsend! Though you do need to go to a remote solenoid, but I have already done that on all my Rambler powered stuff.

XJ's typically have about 2,500lbs on the front axle and 1,000lbs on the rear. The extra weight of the SJ sits on the back axle, that makes all the difference in the world. :) I should have tested the SJ... it would have answered a few questions. In years past my SJ's have won the battle of the hill... :) ------------------------------ End of fsj-digest V1 #2051 **************************
