they are for high perfomance motors, cant really think it would do any damage on a stock motor even...just not really a need for it

I have the Kragen $40 lifetime special on my new 306 and it does just fine. Really don't know what type of engine would justify a $180 starter. I know I am close to 400 horses with no cranking problems at all, and if it does go...who cares I've got the lifetime warranty!
