b electric start conversion

I am on my way to the electric start conversion. bought a used starter and installed. the starter switch on the starter ends up on top. noticed many are on the bottom. have i created an issue??
 
The only issue would be the original foot starter rod would not work. You would have to rig a pull starter rod where it did not strike the gas tank. The CA gas tank had an indentation for the pull rod to clear. You can turn the drive end 360º to change it to the bottom but will have to drill a hole for the pin.
 
I did a solenoid conversion for the pull start rod on my AC B. Turned the electrical contact to the bottom and had the post contact replaced with a copper/brass bolt which allowed me to bolt the battery cable to the starter. I mounted a solenoid inside the tool box and ran the needed wires and key switch. Works great, no interference with the fuel tank and I can remove the key so someone does not tamper with the starting at a show. Stan
