Changing starter on scarab 29 with twin small blocks
Guys,
Just got a scarab 29 and starboard motor needs a starter. Has anyone done this? Can it be done without loosening the motor in that is there enough room. Haven't dove into it, thought I'd check the brain trust first.

if you can lay on your side in front of the engines you can probably get it. otherwise taking off the exhaust above the starter is another option. i can see no reason why loosening the engine mounts would help unless the engine is coming out to do it. get one of the small ones instead of full size old school car starters. oh and welcome aboard!
