Clearancing block for starter

Why not use a factory starter? You wouldn't have to do anything.

Couple of reasons -

1 - I already have a small block mini starter from my previous 318/392 stroker.

2 - As the factory starter is mounted on your passenger side..this is a conversion to a right steer car so I can't use it on that side...the steering box is in the way.

3 - Not sure about this - but if I did try to use the factory item on your drivers side............wouldn't it spin the wrong way?
