Cheers Kent,
That is the conclusion I had drawn. There is also a brake line
in the way (RHD car) which I have covered in plastic tube so it wont rub
through and pushed out of the way as needed.
I think it was you who helped
me out with this engine and kit a few years ago.
Unless it was another
Kent....
thanks again.
Andy

The starter has the adjustable mounting

between the
footwell and 2 areas of the starter body. Not nearly enough as the
engine movement will cause a clash. To grind or not to grind at the
new
starter motor...?

This topic has been on the
list before. The "we tight" remedy is to
put a couple well placed dimples in
the floorpan with a ball peen
hammer.
