yeah i had that problem with a 302 of mine, just shim the starter with a washer or however many it takes to keep it from knocking, when its not in there straight it gets rubber by the flywheel a little bit, you would probably notice that the edges on your flywheel teeth will now be a little shaved and nice and shiny... somethin you will wanna fix before you hafta get a new flywheel along with that starter
