Upgrade your ignition system with the WOSP LMS1101, a premium, gear-reduced starter motor engineered for those who demand "first-time, every-time" starting power. Based on the legendary Denso platform, this unit is designed to replace aging, sluggish OE starters with a lightweight, high-output alternative that thrives under pressure.

Key Features & Benefits

• High-Torque Performance: Specifically designed to turn over high-compression engines that leave standard starters struggling.

   

• Gear Reduction Technology: Utilizes internal gears to increase cranking torque while reducing the electrical load on your battery.

• Lightweight & Compact: Significantly lighter than original Lucas-style units, aiding in weight distribution and making installation easier in tight engine bays.

• Bulletproof Reliability: Built with 100% brand-new components (no core charges or recycled parts) to withstand vibration and high under-bonnet temperatures.

   

• Multi-Mount Versatility: Features a circular stepped register and a rotatable body, allowing for 360-degree clocking to clear headers, oil pans, or chassis rails.
