Left side kick start position

I can't find the post, but someone posted photos of their damaged case, the comments as I remember were attributed to the kick start position...and it was suggested that the kick starter 'engage' at the 3 o'clock position... well mine engages there but I don't like getting the small amount of actual 'starting engagement' I get.
I think it should engage earlier so I can get a GOOD kick outta it & start..

am I wrong?

Found the page...... Is this something I need to be concerned about with a '71 400?

no, not really..hard to screw that one up, they usually work, or dont.

ok..so I can advance it to about the 2 o'clock position?

yup...

Mike,
What PSI are you running in your avatar?

looks a little over inflated.lol..

Are you guys talking about winding up the kick start shaft in the case to 3:00 (clockwise) before you install the kicker and put the cover back on?
Thanks, Ron

LOL..Ron, yes thats exactly what we're talking about..I was concerned about it on my '71...
Guys THAT is an actual photo...it may appear a little squatty posting it here as an avatar.. enjoy for yourself!
