    Starter mounting clearance issues

     



    I was mounting the starter (powermaster 9000) to the block of my 350 motor and ran into a problem.. the gear of the starter should have 1/16" clearance from the flywheel, but when I mounted mine it was engaged 1/8". I added the shims to the housing and it is now engaged only 1/16". I've included a photo for reference. Anyone have an idea on how I can correct this?
    I've been mounting and remounting it for 3 days now... Any advice would be be welcome!!!!
    Thanks in advance !!!
