Does anyone know what this might be???

you can just remove the exhaust from the headers and that should fix it
(might not take care of the noise, but it would take care of you hearing it)

seriously though, what do you mean "starter noise", does it rattle around like its loose, clang like its hitting or sound like its engaging?

Oh, I mean like its rattling a bit sometimes when I step down on it... and sometimes when I'm not..
So, someone told me that there is supposed to be some sort of collar or spacer between the starter and the flex plate and without it there's a rattle... does this sound familiar?
