I don't know if very many people run them, but you might be able to take some material off of it somehow.

I've put a power master on a sbc, and the actual mounting base of the starter could be removed so that the starter could be moved in increments of 20* or so up to 80*. You could then turn the starter upside down and have 80* of motion that way as well. Does your starter have this capiblity? If it does, you should be able to find one place that should work.

I thought of that too, but not available on the LS1 starters.

With my FLP's, the Powermaster was a tight fit, but did fit in, once it was tightened in place, adequate clearance. What headers you running?
