I'm in the process of converting my 318 from B43G Engine with external Starter Solenoid to a P218G Engine with Solenoid attached to the starter. On the P218G the starter solenoid extends below the engine mounts & interferes with the lower mount plate that the engine mounts too. I might have two choices to rectify this problem one might be to raise the engine on the compartment mounts or, cut an access in the lower mount plate of the tractor where the engine attaches to. It looks like the lessor of two evils would be to cut the access for the solenoid in the lower plate & use the existing mounts.
Hopefully someone will have run across this situation before & have the solution that I'm looking for.
Thanks
