I wonder if these starters can handle that kind of current... I know when I'm sizing up wire for the house I have to make sure it can handle the load... In this case can the wiring in the starter handle the hi amount of current rushing through it? I'm sure Tim Allen could find a lawn mower to put them in....Uerr!!!

That's not how it works, 98'. Think of it this way: Your PC is hooked up to a 200 Amp 120V supply, or 24 Thousand Watts of power. Yet, your PC doesn't blow up and it doesn't pull 200 Amps.

You have no idea what Hotrod will do if 200 amps is his goal and at 197 amp draw right now, 666 is the sign of the Devil, 3 is the sign of possessed Evo rider.

If a stock starter can handle a 600 CCA lithium ion battery it can handle the Mega Crank.
