Re: Threaded Post On Delco Starter

Howard, I don't think a "neat and tidy" correlation between starter torque and the size of the job (engine size, compression ratio, etc.) is to be found. Compare the Pierce Twelve, similar CI and CR but 3 more main bearings, to the Packard Twelve. I'll post the Delco chart shortly, shows more of the same.

Here's the Delco-Remy data. Note the torque on the Delco unit for the Twelve, versus the Dyneto units, the Delco for the Twelve in '37 was a one-year only event, I wonder if it was found wanting?
