[Chevelle-list] Re STARTER

[Bill Bradley]

I'm having the problem of a god awful noise with mine no mater how i shim it.
mine has a (currently) 305 with a 700R4 overdrive transmission. I've shimmed it in every way i can think of, I'm still at a loss how to get it right . i don't want to eat up my ring gear or my starter.
any ideas from anyone with a 700R4 tranny?
