Putting hybrid style starter/alt on other car?
Has anyone looked into whats involved in swapping one of those heavy duty starter/alternator units onto an existing car, so that you could stop it at every stoplight, then restart it in 1/2 second as a form of 'mild hybrid'? Either alongside the existing starter (maybe belt drive) or replacing it entirely...
Normal starters will burn out subjected to such abuse, but it seems like a nice compliment for around town mileage to other systems.
