Did you install the flywheel funky?
Otherwise i'd say it was the starter for sure. Had that happen on my RX-7. The bendix gear wasn't coming out all the way to engage the flywheel.

take your starter out and get it tested at a pepboys or autozone etc. and if its not the alt its the flywheel possible installed wrong or teeth are just gone

autozones not gonna be able to tell you if the teeth are rounded off, cuz thats what it wounds like unless the solenoid is stuck
