Description
The Powermaster XS High Torque Starter is a high-performance, gear-reduction solution specifically engineered for the Ford Modular and Coyote V8 engine families (4.6L, 5.0L, 5.4L, 6.2L, and 6.8L). Designed to overcome the common "hot start" and clearance issues associated with factory Ford starters, the XS Torque series provides the cranking power needed for everything from stock daily drivers to high-compression racing engines.
Heavy-Duty Cranking Performance
The XS Torque series is built to handle extreme engine builds that standard starters simply cannot:
Massive Torque Output: Produces 200 lb-ft of torque, providing enough mechanical leverage to turn over engines with compression ratios as high as 18.0:1.
Gear Reduction: Features a 4.4:1 gear-reduction ratio, which maximizes motor efficiency while drawing less current from your battery.
Power Ratings: Delivers up to 1.8 Horsepower (1.4 kw) of starting energy.
Precision Engineering & Fitment
This starter is designed to be the lightest 200 lb-ft unit on the market, offering significant advantages for custom builds:
3-Position Adjustable Mount: The billet aluminum mounting block can be rotated into three different positions. This allows you to "clock" the starter motor to gain extra clearance for long-tube headers or aftermarket oil pans.
Compact Profile: If your original equipment (OE) starter cleared your oil pan, this unit is guaranteed to fit, often providing even more room for exhaust routing.
Durability: The mounting block is CNC-machined from billet aluminum, providing a much stronger foundation than the cast housings found on stock starters.
Reliability and Heat Protection
Eliminates Heat Soak: The solenoid is fully encapsulated, protecting it from the intense radiant heat of nearby exhaust headers. This design virtually eliminates the "click-no-start" problems common when a vehicle is hot.
Dyno Tested: Every Powermaster starter is individually dyno-tested before leaving the factory. A Proof of Performance guarantee (actual test results) is included in the box so you know exactly how your specific unit performed.
Corrosion Resistance: Available in a standard finish, with select models offering a high-polish chrome-plated option for show-quality engine bays.
