      Most of us here are using a piece of thick (high wattage) nichrome wire resistor across an exteral solenoid wired in serries with the starter motor main terminal. The motor starts slow and when you want high speed you flick a switch and it closes the solenoid, bridging the resistor. I"ve had the system for many years. Simple and cheep.
