M151 Bendix hitting pressure plate.

My Bendix seems to be hitting the pressure plate making horrible noises and marking them both up. Put on a new Bendix but still get the same thing. Any suggestions thanks

Do you have the right bolts in your tranny hat? Seems like I remember using washers on the bolts and it put the starter in a bind, the tolerances are tight where the starter sits on top of the tranny.

It's not my vehicle so I don't know any previous work that's been done to it.
