Jorge,
I also purchased from British Starters, had the same issue with mounting.
Simply take the
mounting adaptor off the starter and rotate the stater to a position that will
fit. The mounting plate
is for many different applications and of course they don't set up the starter
for a Healey. It may take
a couple of tries but it does fit, I managed to get right in about two
attempts, for me that was good.

I purchased a gear reduction starter from British Starters and I tried fitting
it to the bell housing and found that if I lined up the bolt holes the starter
would hit the scuttle or the frame rails. Is there a proper way to clock the
starter so it will fit? In previous posts to the list some of you mentioned
having to shim the starter in order to get a proper fit. Couls you explain what
exactly did you shim and what was used as shims?
Thanks
