I have a T4 Auto starter in the garage if necessary, but cannot see why i have to use this over the stock one. The supported nose of the stock starter is not fouling on flywheel as i have been told it will.

What am i missing here?
The problem is that the starter support bushing may become damaged by clearance gringing ofr the fittings.If its damaged a self supported starter is needed, a starter witch does not require a bushing for the gear support.

So it could work or it could not work but if you have only one trans you have to be carefull and have and extra ss starter...
I have not installed a 228in a t1 trans but someone who did could tell us how it ended.
