03 7.3L Starter question

[7.3L_Stroker444]

Im about due to put a starter on my 03. Any suggestions on good starters besides a motorcraft starter? a friend of mine was telling me about a starter they made for the industrial 7.3L or something like that, that spun a lot faster and worked alot better than the regular motorcraft, anyone heard of such a thing??

they have gear reduction starters, i believe that i got mine at napa. Its a bit shorter, and the main mass kinda hangs off the side as opposed to the longer style

I am not endorsing either one of these, nor do i recomend buying a starter off amazon.. this is just where google images took me..

thanks for the input, ive been reading up currently on gear reduction starters, xdp has one called the mean green gear reduction starter, so far the reviews ive read have been all positive and faster cranking speeds

Go to O'Reilly's and get a starter for a 6 liter. They are gear reduction, they will bolt up and they are lifetime warranty. If it fails, there are O'Reilly's everywhere. I have over 100K miles on my O'Reilly's starter.

How much faster does it start ?

How much faster does it start ?

fast but If the 6.4 starter bolts up to a 6.0 then it should bolt to a 7.3. (Seeing 6.0s starters bolt up) 6.4 starters are faster than 6.0s starters.

I honestly wonder of anyone has done this ?

Oh man. ...now I wanna know too.

It sure looks like it will...

I was thinking of seeing if 6.7 starter bolts up to 6.4,6.0,7.3 because they are even faster then 6.4 starters.

I put a power master in mine. Some people don't like em. I just didn't want to spend that much on a mean green right now....

Like Andy said, Oreilly's usually has lifetime warranties on their starters. I'd pick one and buy it from them.
