Well, I tried yesterday to mount my mini starter (actually two of them) to my Mega Block and found that the inside bolt for the solenoid hits the carve out area in the block, preventing the starter from mounting straight.
I pulled out a spare (Summit starter - new), and had the same issue with that one. Ended up having to put in a big ole stock mopar starter - fits fine, but is struggling mightily...
I remember having to space the starter way back when using the Reactor flexplate, but I don't remember having the clearance issue.
Anyone run across this before ?? Is there a race starter that will fit ? I don't think the factory Mopar one is long for this world at 14:1 !!!
