I have a World products 4.500 bore siamese wedge engine and I am trying to bolt up the starter BUT there is a clearance issue with the B positive terminal up against the block. I have one of those mini starters and I was wondering if there was a relocation kit OR another starter that would bolt up that was different??? PLEASE HELP....Thanks,, Gary Oles nosboy
Sorry not try to be a smart A## but did you remove the plastic extendsion off the terminals. I have also seen some guys grind the post down a little or RobbMc "clockable" starter might be another route to go.

We use a Ford style solenoid mounted in a remote location, such as on our running test engine/stand, that allows enough clearance away from the casting (it should work on your block too)  - Koleno Performance

So, do you remove the starter mounted solenoid? What needs to be done, any pics?

There was a similar post on here about 2 months ago. I gave the guy the bracket off of a dakota starter. They have a brass strap that is bent out and down from the solonoid and puts the starter power stud pointing to the front of the car. then ya cut off the stud at the top, and you should clear. Ill check to see if I aquired any more parts since the last time I gave them away. I have 3 more cores since I gave him that part.

Kasey, that was me you gave the strap to and it helped a lot. I have it on my mini starter right now and I'm gonna get some pics posted by this afternoon.
I bought the Powermaster starter and the mini is just going to be a spare now.
