apparently my ideas to use stock starter and alt for my engine where nevi and since they are required to be mounted on the accessory case so I can mount my gear box it is back to the drawing board with some creative engineering . Both the picture show two different set up for the starter (witch is the big deal in this mess) I am 98% sure I can make either method work but see a down side to each and would like to hear some others thoughts about each set up. Either way I have to get some extra parts machined witch I don't have the tools to do my self
1st method would mount in the top center hole on the accessory case (for left to right) the gear fits into the brass bushing in the case then the shaft extends out I would need a adapter plate to join the shaft and the next gear witch would act as a flywheel then replace the 1" plate that the starter is mounted on with a new on the fits the case hole and has a hole for a brushing that the shaft can ride in . starter would be bolted directly to the accessory case. my worries with this is the shaft being able to handle the starting of the engine without breaking

2nd method basically a little smaller gear because of confined space on my set up ( from engine out) fuel pump drive gear then need to make a adapter to weld in place form the end of the drive gear shaft to the gear shown starter would need to have a separate mount fabricated to hold it. also for added info I have a manual fuel pump on the engine witch will use this same gear drive also and the gear would be exposed pretty much as shown in the picture
