The starter has the adjustable mounting plate, but the only
orientation I can get it to fit gives about 1mm clearance 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.
