Maxium current drawn when under load (starting)

Thanks for the offer Carl, but i am pretty happy that my estimations are good and i can also factor in a 60% duty cycle to what i am going so there is room for error

Surely the starter would only draw current on cranking and 0 amps when the engine is running?
