Starter spacer

When I first built my 340 with a mini starter it would sometimes grind when first starting the engine. This went on for a few months. Now that this post popped up, I don't remember hearing it grind for about a month now. Whatever caused the slight grinding, it's gone now. My setup is a '66 Valiant with a 340 and 904, engine and trans fresh last year. The slight grinding never was sever, so I didin't worry about it.
