    Which turns an engine over faster, a 9 tooth or 11 tooth starter pinion? Which one has more torque?

    ***uming that they can... and all else being equal...

    The 11 tooth will turn the engine over faster. The 9 tooth will provide more torque.

    Think of the gearing on a 10 speed bike. ;)
