Mounting a hi torque gear reduction starter

Has anyone mounted one of these starters? We are trying on a '46 TC with a Datsun steering box mod and it doesn't want to go.
The starter is a nice small size, but it is offset and contacts the block or the steering column. It is very adjustable but still has a fit problem.
Thanks, Allan Chalmers TA, TC

Allan,
I have one mounted and I have a Datsun box but I m not home to take a photo. As I remember you can loosen the motor from the mount and rotate it to the position needed to clear everything.
Best regards,Gene Gillam

I have one for my TA, which was a prototype for a company in Cincinnati; I ve still got the original in the carAnd they made some changes for a better fit, later, to their production model (standard steering). Jan/Fairfield Sent from
