All Small Six 1962 Falcon Wagon C4 & 200

[phipplet]

I’m installing a 1966 200 & C4 into my 62 Squire wagon. My C4 is the “Green Dot.” Transmission.

Here’s my question that seems to ask more questions than answers. And I’ve never seen any photos anywhere on the internet. Does someone know which mini three (3) bolt starter from an FE engine will fit this setup? it’s the136 teeth welded ring wheel torque converter. I’m trying to clear headers.

I’d post the many starters people have suggested on multiple forums, but no one has ever done it or posted a picture saying it works or not? Plus there’s way too many suggestions.

Thanks for any help!

All Small Six Thread 'Need Help Finder a Starter Motor for my 170ci Bronco Build'

Aug 24, 2023

I am doing a ground up restoration on a 1967 Bronco. It came with the 170 ci I-6 and the three speed manual transmission. The Bronco will eventually be for my Mother as she has always wanted an early Bronco. I have put a C4 auto behind the restored 170 because my mother cannot drive stick and I wanted to keep the original motor in it. I am running into a bunch of hurdles trying to get this 170ci/c4 combo to work as the Bronco never came in this configuration. At least it never had to my knowledge. I have the Engine and C4 mounted to the frame right now after a little bit of a struggle to...

You could contact some mini starter companies and ask their tech dept.

No one on here knows for sure what will fit, but Summit told one of our members that Power Master 9106 would fit a 67 200 C4 and I do not think there is any difference from the 66.
A this point you will have to get it and see. If you do please come back and tell us so we can help others.

Thanks! I will purchase it and see if it fits.

Unable to locate a Powermaster 9106. Maybe he meant a 9506? That’s what a lot of people think. Oh well

 

[drag-200stang]

I just searched ''Powermaster 9106'' and Summit has more than 10 in stock at 168.-- dollars. The 9506 is a different style, heavier and larger starter for the same engines. 209.99 dollars at summit.
Call Summit and see what they say.

Thread 'Starter Swaps for the 250's, 200's, & other Small Six'es'

Mar 14, 2020

Recently there was a discussion on the big six forum on using the newer small case Motorcraft or aftermarket gear reduction starters in place of the big case old style starters. These newer starters have lots of advantages like smaller diameter cases for more header clearance, less weight, faster starting, to name a few. So thought I would also share some of highlights from mine and others posts here in the small six forum as it also applies to our 250's, & low mount 200's, and many other Small Ford Sixes that uses a 2 bolt starter. Latest Update (05/16/20020) a site member recently found...

Yes, this starter will work for your 200 cui. Six cylinder

I assume you’re talking about the Powermaster 9106?

Yes, please tell what brand and part number worked for you.

The power master 9406 has been in our car since 2016. We did ultimately have the tranny rebuilt and have added an autolite 2100, not a webber, and repainted the car, but maybe this will help a bit: https://herbelgarage.wordpress.com/2016/06/08/summit-starter-woes-and-fixes/

Thank you!

So power master 9406 seems to solve the mystery and is a nice looking unit.
I got a mini starter from a business called Alterstart in Dallas, TX for my 250 and it worked fine. Don't know if they are still in business they had been selling on ebay. Been awhile since that upgrade but I seem to remember the mini was much lighter than the original starter maybe 10 lbs?
