Cold start chirp
My starter is new, I replaced it while I was "under the hood" with the heads off & LTs out. Old one came out with no shims, so there are no shims on this one. I did not gauge or check clearance on the starter, which I'm sure would have been a good idea.
I have a noise when starting the car that sounds exactly like the truck in this video:

I see the guy who posted the video concluded it's a dirty starter. That'd be nice, but I'd like some second opinions. Any of you have car that does or did this?
