I'm sure it would work with the Big Block TKX swap I'm working on, but I haven't found anyone who's tried it. Looks like a lot more room for header clearance. I tried the mini starter, and I had to stop smashing the hell out of the header before there was nothing left. The starter is moved out about an inch from the block compared to a 727. You can see how much I had to smash the tube, and it still didn't fit. I've got 3/8" clearance using the stock starter.
