After my modifications I never tried the k24 starter but I’m sure it will fit.

I did go ahead and clearance the trans just incase but I don’t think I needed to.
I grabbed a K24 starter because that is what I was told that they would be using, but I'm guessing grinding down the bellhousing was less desirable than just buying a K20 starter for them, so it is that much more plug and play.

I do see that your starter is external and looks like the K20 starter in their photo. I think I will be just using the K24 starter and making modifications. I'm not too worried about grinding down the inside of the bellhousing.
