I have a 99 Suburban 1500 4wd. I just had a new motor put in by a friend who owns a shop. From the very start of the first start up after installation the starter did start the truck but it always gave a loud clang and hit hard. I moved two days later so now it has trouble starting. Sounds like it just no longer hits the fly wheel right so it misses starting. I looked at the fly wheel and the outside edge of it is shiney but no teeth missing. Did not have this problem before I put the new motor in.

Any thoughts on what it could be?
 
Yes, I replaced the original starter which was on the vehicle before the engine change. Both starters have had the same problem.
