Dear Yellott,
My Idea From past posts might solve the issue without grinding the starter.

Look to be sure that the starter has no centering ring (machined surface at the mounting hole. If it does, neither way will work.=, and grinding the ID of the starter hole is not advised. Grinding (or lathe turning the starter nose would be better.

If the location of the starter is primarily the bolts, put the starter in the hole and tighten it in without shims. Mark the bolt head, that is easiest to get to, with an arrow pointing directly away from the flywheel. Remove this bolt and grind 1/3 of the shank of the bolt away so it is reduced in diameter only on the side where the arrow is pointing, and only from the head of the bolt to the depth of the starter flange. This will allow the starter to be mounted flat, and be moved away from the ring gear by about 1/16". That should make the tooth clearance happy.
