[Healeys] SPIN -ON UPSIDE DOWN

[Scott J Graham]

Hi George



He is right.  I matched mine to the block without proper reference to the
holes/ functional design and ended up with it back to front  zero oil
pressure!!  When mounted correctly, it hangs awkwardly off the bottom of the
block!

Thanks Bob, Alan, David,

I will look at all those suggestions.  Bob when you say the adapter will
look incorrect relative to the block when it is installed correctly could be
the reason that the starter did not have enough room to come out.  That
little slant that I believe you're talking about could be just enough to
allow the starter to pass by.



I'm going out right now to put things back together.  Will let you know if I
need more help.



Thanks,
