Re: Volvo B27/B28 Starter Motor

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxx>]

Just purchased spare B27 or B28 (still waiting for Martin G to ID).
Starter motor is on "driver" side (under cylinders 4-6). Would
interfere with DeLo exhaust system. Until I actually remove to
investigate shape don't if bullnose allows passenger side installation.
