    Can anyone tell me what voltage can be used on the old SPE blower starters?

    Thanks.

    Thank you,

    What Amp batteries? Are you using 2 12vs or one 24V?

    thanks for any further.

    We used the two 12 volts that were in the crew cab truck and a series / parallel swithch, ( like the big trucks use ) to swithch from 12v to 24v.
    It worked real nice never had to charge the batteries.

    If i remember those starters used a ford starter motor from some thing like a year "63" where the bendix pulled back instead of pushing out and had a longer shaft to put the keyway into, i may even have one still laying under the bench but i think i threw it out after looking at it for about 10 years
    so it started life as a 12 volt ford truck starter

    Starter

    It should be 24V with 2 battery's. I sold one to JR at RBS a couple of years ago, think he still has it. Randy

    Spe

    Can any of y'all help me out on what SPE is? We've recently bought a new outlaw fuel altered and it came with SPE brakes on it and I'm not familiar with that brand and can't seem to find anything about it on the internet.

    He died 2 or 3 years ago and his daughter sold everything off. You might try Nate Bug as he purchased a lot of the inventory they had. bugg7056@aol.com
