I read somewhere a standard small block starter will have meshing issues with the 168 tooth flexplate.... Not true?

Thats because you are supposed to shim them. I never do, just drop the old one and put whatever shims are there back in. Shimming is done with a paper clip. Scientific aint it.

Funny but true I used to have grinding issues , but the paperclip feeler gauge is the real deal , works great
