Its getting there! If all the parts I'm waiting on arrive when I'm expecting I should have a rolling chassis by early Jan.

Now, I have a question. I want to fit a high torque mini starter to save some space. I keep getting asked if I want a straight or staggered starter but I didn't note the fixings of my starter when I took it off and that's an issue as it has 3 possible fixing points as does the block.

I have tried the mini starter off the trucks 454 and it fits and its a straight fitting so I have to assume that in this case it doesn't matter which I go for but I could do with knowing is there anything more to these types of fittings ie is the shaft in a different position for example or is it just a case of different mountings?
