    Rick’s
    Electrosport (mine)
    Caltric

    …are three of the top mentions in the last few years, I believe. I don’t know that anyone’s produced demonstrable test results to prove that one is better than the other. The only one that I can think of that may have done something like that would be Nessism. If he has, I missed it.

    Best to keep your connections and grounds corrosion-free to avoid buildup of resistance/heat that causes stator death. And make sure your oil level is correct. And use a series type RR SH775.

        Caltric will be the least expensive and on this forum isn't that what it's all about?

        Just kidding of course but I just put a Caltric on mine a few weeks ago.

        Edit:. Only $38 and change but it took over a week to get here. I went straight to the website but you can also get them from other online sellers.
