Well, I put motor back in when I went to turn crank to set timing i heard a noise.I used Lenny converter this time and check to see if the converter would turn when the tranny@block was bolted together all was good.I used the plate that goes in between block/tranny but it did not have a starter locator.Should i have used the little spacer that goes in crank and slides over converter neck?Or could it be the starter to close to flywheel and need a spacer?It was late when i found the problem so i've not check anything yet was going see what you guys thought.

Yes,the block plate did not have the starter locator.I made a shim that goes in between starter/bellhousing thickness of the block plate and not hitting.Amazing what a little clearance can do.I took starter off and turn engine by hand to see if i heard the noise which i did not.
