I remember reading a long time ago that someone had to slightly modify the adapter plate in order for it to work, more specifically the starter area...

Anyone know what needs to be done? I'd like ot know what to do before I get started on modeling it.

I dont know about the dixon one , but with the mazworx one you have to notch a peice of the block where the factory vh starter goes.

On yours with the measurments your doing will require notching the block as well.
