Hi Matt,
What kind of starter did you get? I just put one on my '75 a couple of weeks
ago, I had no problem with it.
I got the one that Ted Schumacher sells, it swivels a full 360* in about 20*
increments so you can adjust the angle on it.
Slightly blurry picture of it in-situ here on my website:

You can see that the solenoid is below the steering arm, just above the
frame.
Picture of the indexing holes:

On Ted's starter, you have to remove two 'set screws' from the holes, when you
do that, the entire mount plate swivels freely. It was really easy to set in
place, swivel it around to the proper angle, then pull it out and install the
set screws to maintain that angle.
If you get "Spitfire & GT6 Magazine", I have an article on the installation in
the upcoming issue.
Hope this helps!
