Strongest Starter Box

Strongest Starter Box
Who can tell me the strongest starter box. I'm tired of having mine just stall on the compression stroke for any new engine.
I'm breaking in an OS .12XZ and went to geared starters out of frustration on other toys. I want to lose the weight but what box to use.
Tried OFNA with 700 series motor direct drive and 12V 7A, and a Duratrax with 2-540 and a 12v 7A.
Whats stronger????????

Get a decent heatgun to heat up the engine before starting

Get a heat gun. Twenty bucks at home deposit. The interfeance of a new piston and sleeve will stall any box. If you do get it to turn over cold your yanking the shizit out of both ends of the rod and at the same time "smearing" the sides of the piston skirt.
The piston does not fit the sleeve. It's up to you to finish the piston sizing. !BE GENTLE!

This is all true but also if you want a lighter starter box with more power you can use a lipo it doesn't even feel like you have a battery in the starter box

This is by far the best. Light, study, yet very powerful. I used to have mugen and team losi. Compared to HARD, they are junks...

from my experience:
TEAM MAGIC ALPHA
HARD
its powerful enough to crank your new motor. still not enough punch? wire it to your car battery

loosen your glowplug a bit and use a heatgun on the block with the piston down.

Go to a gas station or a trucker stop, you shoud find a 12 or 24v hairdryer.
