The top  bolt no problem but the bottom bolt not so good there is very little 
room for  the nut to fit between the starter motor and and the mounting tab. 
I should  clarify that the nut will just fit but not the nut and the lock 
washer. I am  thinking of finding a thinner nut that will fit with the lock 
washer. Any  ideas suggestions would be greatly apprciated

Though I used a thin nut  and lock washer when mounting the gear  starters on 
the Healeys on the Elva (MGA engine) I went a  different route and had a new 
nose piece machined out of aluminum with threads  in the bottom tab which 
eliminated the need for the nut.  You might get  away with a helicoil.
