I have a 70 chevelle with a 355 small block in it. I can not seem to get the stater shimmed right.It will be O.K. for a couple of days them start to sound loud again.I have shimmed it on the out side only with quite a few sims to get it right only to have it go bad later. last week it cracked the nose on my starter.any ideas as to what the problem could be. Thanks Gary
