Anyone ever done this? I know the water galleries on the block are larger so it's so called impossible, but after abit of work and fabrication to the 16v starter motor today, I managed to fit it to the williams block :P Anyone else done this?

when I had my Williams I went through a few starter motors lol, the valver one fitted straight on though... having said that it lasted a month before it died. Luckily I'd just been sent the wrong one but never knew until it went. It may be fine on yours as my car was actually cursed and everything broke on it.
