Tom:  Is it hanging up on the firewall?  The gear box needs to be =
rotated clockwise enough so the "bump" on the bell housing where the =
starter pinion goes clears the firewall.  And the whole =
engine/transmission alignment must be perfect.  If you have done that, =
then my next guess would be a damaged pilot bush.  .
