Looks like your timing is off, I did the same thing to my starter in my SBC GEN1 350. The car kicked back becuase the timing was off and snapped the case. I know we have computer controlled timing advanced but if the car isnt at TDC and the opti inst aligned up right it could kick back the flywheel and damage the unit. I mean it did happen to me. this may help you.

sdo more to the point did the car start up and run or did it crank, kick over and stall?? Mine was due to a distributor issue, yours sounds like the same
