I have the EXACT same problem, and my starter is brand new hi-torque mini. It's the heat from the headers that expands the internals of the starter. I am currently looking for a place that sells the good metl heat shields and if I find anything I'll post something in that regards. If anyone knows of a place that sells them, please let me know. I had to push my car up to tech inspect last week to make my 1st run she was so hot.
