I don’t have a flywheel handy but it is easy to work it out, Measure from the starter mounting face on the block to the ring gear then from the face on the starter to the inside of the alloy nose of the starter ( the limit of where the pinion can travel to) If these measurements are close there is your problem, the distance from the block to the ring gear needs to be less by roughly the thickness of the ring gear to allow the pinion to mesh well with the ring gear.

I hope this makes sense.
