The key word is "based" when we made the block we wanted siamese cylinder bores. This reqiured us to move the water jacket out to maintain proper cooling and it is the water jacket that causes the interference. If you look closely at the Pond block he has done the same thing but has a relief to clear the starter. Some things are easier when you see other peoples projects.
Who uses a stock starter anyway?
