Engine & Tranny Installation-Dougs Headers, Poly Lock Mounts, Nothing Fits!

Is the starter tightly mounted? I see a loose nut.

yes rob, i loosened that nut after the fact. i figured it out and found an even SMALLER mini starter. its from a 1997 dodge dakota 5.2

here are comparison pictures of the one i had versus the new one.
















As you can see I have way more clearance.

Stay tuned, I'm sure I will run into more problems...
