Guys.... My new 418 runs like a top but sounds like it needs a battery recharge when I try to start the motor after it is completely warmed up. I get this this slow moan for a few turns before the starter starts to spin normally.

I have been thinking about replacing the brand new Delco starter motor that came with the build with a high torque starter.....Ford SVO hi-torque, etc. The timing is set at 10 degrees initial. The motor spins freely when cold, but moans too often for the first 2-3 seconds when hot. Am I heading down the right direction with a new hi-torque starter? Any experience whether this is going to fix my hot start problems? Motor has 1000 miles on it.
