Hi Matt, What kind of starter did you get? I just put one on my '75 a couple of weeks ago, I had no problem with it.
I got the one that Ted Schumacher sells, it swivels a full 360* in about 20* increments so you can adjust the angle on it. Slightly blurry picture of it in-situ here on my website: http://www.littlebluespitfire.com/gallery/starter/P1010022 You can see that the solenoid is below the steering arm, just above the frame. Picture of the indexing holes: http://www.littlebluespitfire.com/gallery/starter/P1010020 On Ted's starter, you have to remove two 'set screws' from the holes, when you do that, the entire mount plate swivels freely. It was really easy to set in place, swivel it around to the proper angle, then pull it out and install the set screws to maintain that angle. If you get "Spitfire & GT6 Magazine", I have an article on the installation in the upcoming issue. Hope this helps!
