TR6060 and TB suspension? Any info on the starter interference?

I know that Hemi cars have starter on the right side and hemi trucks have it on the left side . I believe you can change the bell housing to a quick time scatter shield to switch the starter to the left side. Since the starters where always bolted to the transmission and not the block

To use the QT bell on a Challenger TR6060, you have to change the input shaft and midplate. It's about $650 for those parts, plus another $916 for the bell. If I went aftermarket T56 Magnum, the bell is still required so not sure it is fair to include that other than to say that a used TR6060 at $1800 would run $3366 in total to get it bolted to the motor. Compared to $1800 if I could use the TR6060 as is, the $3366 is a significant difference.

As far as I know, no one makes an aftermarket bell to work with the Mopar TR6060 that put's the starter on the drivers side. There are aftermarket ones, but they keep the PS starter location.

A used TR6060 and $650 in parts to use the aftermarket bell isn't a bad price, still $1000 less than a new T56 Magnum. But it still requires the output adapter and special drive shaft, plus you don't have a speedometer output so additional parts. That kind of eats up the $1000 savings pretty fast and makes it a little harder to justify. If the TR6060 just fit, then it makes more sense, in my mind.
