PowerMaster Starter
Just put on a new PowerMaster starter..............cranks fine the first 3 or 4 times then it hits the flywheel teeth and just sorta clicks, then you have to move the starter gear teeth just a hair, then it works ? ? ? '73 in Tennessee

Did you use shims to install the starter?

Have not started it yet, still on stands, just making sure it's gonna crank. I'll crank it a couple minutes and then stop and repeat. I'll do that a few times, then it will hit the teeth. Summit said they will do that, I just have to keep doing it, until it stops. I guess i will work on deburring the flywheel teeth this weekend !

hope that ML67 has your problem nailed!!
the only other thing i could think of is if you had an aftermarket flexplate, would be easy to check it while on the stand to make sure they welded the ring gear on concentrically.
more to go wrong with starters, but just in case you had completely ruled it out . . .
