TR6060 and TB suspension? Any info on the starter interference?
Yeah, I think Holley missed something and that they are wrong.
I bought a later Hellcat starter (there is an earlier one that is smaller) and found a dust cover to locate it. Then, with the help of a friend, put together a plate to simulate a bell housing. The motor is 1 degree down in relation to the k-frame it is sitting on. I've read the stock 5.7 setup is 2 degrees down but the Holley motor mounts are too stiff to get that without bolting it all to a car, and that would only make it worse anyway.
Don't see a way this is going to work. I'd need the idler to drop about 1" to clear the starter, and even the smaller one isn't that much smaller.
Pretty sure the TR6060 is out with a TB suspension short of swapping the midplate and input shaft so an aftermarket bellhousing can be used. And then I wouldn't call it a "TR6060" anymore.
