Ford Cosworth - T5 Gearbox

High torque starter motor to fit the Ford Cosworth (2WD & 4WD). During Ford Cosworth production, two different starter motors were used, depending upon which gearbox was fitted to the car. The two wheel drive cars and the majority of four wheel drive cars had a Borg Warner T5 gearbox. The starter motor for this gearbox has 3 mounting holes on a 105mm PCD with M10 threads.

Less common were 4WD cars with a Ford MT75 gearbox. These have 3 mounting holes on a 114.3mm PCD, with no thread. The starter motor for this variant is the LMS588

Originally the Ford starter had a 10 tooth 27mm pinion. These starters have an 11 tooth 29mm pinion, offset slightly. The net effect is an even faster cranking speed, on top of that provided by the high torque starter motor.
