Since I alluded to problems with the Sky-Tec lightweight starters, I will elaborate. If you are using a 4-cylinder engine with a carb, then I'm not aware firsthand of any reasons why the Sky-Tec won't work. They have sold thousands of them so them must work for someone.
However, the Sky-Tec are permanent magnet starters that are subject to breakage should your engine suffer a kickback during engine start. I do not know this for a fact, but to me this seems to be more a problem with fuel injected engines rather than carbed engines. Be aware that a single instance of a kickback can ruin your starter. I don't know the technical details but the magnets break and then rattle loose inside the starter. This also diminishes the capacity of the starter.
I have one on my shelf after it left me stranded following a kickback. It most definitely is not suited for a Lyc 540 and in fact, Sky-Tec now recommends their more costly and significantly beefed up inline starter for these applications. I don't like to buy the same thing twice so you can tell that I am not happy with Sky-Tec. Having learned the hard way, I use as many B & C products as I can. Just my choice as a consumer, your mileage may vary.
