 OK, I had to put a 60 starter on my 65, and the solenoid barely cleared the half shaft. I didn't install it upside down, did I?

A non-1960 starter solenoid will hit the "roof" - sheet metal package area. 
The 60 starter is reliable in my experience - as much as any Corvair 
starter - and inexpensive to rebuild at the local rebuilder - $75?  Many 
things in the 60s are different because of the starter; the throttle arm to 
the carb linkage and the wiring harness and battery cable length for 
example.
