Which Starter for clearance..?

Post by burble »

Problems with clearance putting Rover 3.5 into Tvr.
Had a look and find that the SD1 has the solenoid underneath whereas mine has the solenoid on the side of the starter which is fouling my chassis.
Is there an alternative starter with the solenoid on top of the starter please.

Ta Mike,
Did have a read through that but missed the bit where it said use 9m 90 Lucas.
I presume that is the one I want with the solenoid on top, I'll have a look round for one next week.
Still trawling for gearbox, look like it's going to be a long job :roll:

If you have a problem finding a 9m 90 then send me a pm and I will see what I can find down here for you.
Have a local guy who seems to have an endless supply of them.
Cheers

Thaks for that, I'll have a look what starter is on my V8 Land Rover, it may be different to the one on the engine I'm testing in the TVR.
If not then I'll definately give you a call.
