[Roadsters] starter

[Pat]

Tim,

Most folks are able to get the starter loose from the top and bottom, 
then work it out around the exhaust header to the front of the engine. 
If that is not possible, drill out the spot welds on the triangle shaped 
panel, do your starter work, then screw the panel back in. It may also 
be possible to gently lift the engine on the starter side to make up for 
sagging engine mounts, making enough clearance to get the starter out and in

Be warned that some starters are longer than others, and exhaust headers 
are made differently which can cause the header to be removed to get the 
starter out. Personally, I'd take the starter out in pieces before I 
remove the header.

Peace,
Pat
