Default Starter info please..

I have been looking at mini starters for a while and cannot make up my mind on which one to go with. I've been looking at the Mitsubishi style starters but can't find any feedback on them (brands). I have ran the drag race style $175.00 jobs. And wanted something/more piece of mind starter for the street. I may be out on a limb and over thinking this. So I'm gonna ask what are some of you guys running? It's a 11.1 small block chevy not a LS. Any feedback on this would help me out a great deal.
Thanks,

I've been running this Powermaster for 1.5 years no complaints. When cranking they are louder and higher pitched than the OEM starter.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Sounds like yours seems to be a good choice also. After 1.5 years considering the driving cranking time would that be moderate use or a weekend at a time use? The Tiltons are nice and I may go bite the bullet being they are $400!

About 4K miles of short trips mostly, like 15-20 mile radius of the house.

Ok cool thanks for all the info. They look to be a pretty good piece for the money.
