When I was checking my pinion tooth/flywheel engagement, it was clear I wouldn't get 1/2 the depth of the flywheel. I looked at several starters and they all had the same extension. I then called QuickTime and spoke with an application engineer, who told me it's ok to have less overlap, and gave me a minimum spec (I don't remember what it is). I'm pointing this out so you know the 1/2 depth thing is a guideline, and sometimes it's fine to have less.
