All Starters require clearance between the flywheel and the pinion gear while in static position. It would appear that this is lacking in your installation. I think the incorrect nose piece is being used in your application. .062 seems to be a common measurment.

If you go to http://www.tiltonracing.com/content....ist2&id=31&m=s they have several illustrations of the nose pieces for their products. You can see various depths for different applications and you can get an idea of what must be accomplished.
