Good to see some progress on this idea. I see lots of good talk here, bring up new ideas, and thinking about them in great detail.

I think the idea about making the starter shaft longer is a good idea, but the longer a peice of metal is I would think it would be more apt to twist. And enought twists it could snap. If it was made out of some stong metal you would probally never have a problem.

I have to say that getting away from the SBC is a great idea. It sucks that you can put that engine into just about anything made, but diesel swaps are such a pain in the ass. That will be changing in the future....

keep up the good work.
