CVR (or any other adjustable starter) indexing

I put my CVR starter on last night. To get it to fit with my MAC headers, I had to rotate the motor/solenoid assembly all the way around (it's now upside down). It's an 8 way adjustable type. It fits like that, but it's now VERY close to my Y-pipe. Anyone else using this combination, or any other adjustable starter? How close is it you your Y-pipe?

Well, mine just came in Friday so I haven't got it installed yet. Also, I have different headers, Grotyohann long tubes.

I've got min rotated down so it will stay cool. No problem with the collector/custom Y-pipe on my AS&M's.

CVR Starter

Those are tranny cooler lines hanging under the starter.

My old CVR starter was the same way on my 91. You may want to wrap it or put a heat shield on it. If not, Invest in a remote silinoid and you won't have to worry any more. The silinoids are crappy on them. Mine died in 6 months and they wanted to charge me $90 to fix it. BS! Just to let you know.

That's exactly how mine is indexed. How do you like the starter? How long have you had it? Do you think it will hurt being that close to the exhaust?
