Mini Starter cracking nose cones

Question everyone hope someone can help::: I got a stroked 440 in a 67 GTX I am getting ready to put my fourth mini starter in after the second one took out my ring gear on the torq conv I called bouchillon performance got no answers after researching I seen a lot of info that some blocks you have to grind down part of the C section of the block so I did worked for 6 months (number 3). now comes the 4th pulled the starter and inspected no rub marks on the housing or on the C section of the block starter gear is fully engaging the ring gear. starter number 3 was mated flush bolt and top nut installed with no binding and torqued. has anyone ran in to this problem before any help would be appreciated !! its getting expensive after a new 3500 stall converter thanks All !!!

I have always used the small mopar starter and never had a problem on my 500" 12.5 cr motor.
