    Starter doesn't want to engage flywheel

    Hey Guys, I recently put in a new s50 engine turbo'd and swapped out my auto to a manual tranny. I went to start the car and the starter just spins freely. I took off the starter and bench tested it and it was fine. It seems like the flywheel is too far for the gears to engage? I am at a lost is their a spacer or something that i may have put on wrong to push the flywheel farther away? Any help would be awesome!
    thanks
