Old Man with a Hat
I'll keep it short because the whole explanation is extremely long.
Many mini starters won't work because the mounting flange is improperly machined. It looks like the starter fits perfectly but it's not.
TWICE, I've had to take a grinder to them to fit perfectly flush and aligned.
One of them was from Bouchelon and I paid top dollar for.
Well I guess I'll eat my hat now. Or maybe during the extremly long explanation.
