31 views and no responses, so I'll toss a guess or two out.

The sound you are describing is due to a failed/failing solenoid. Worth checking grounds and connections.

Starters should last a fairly long time. But with a high compression motor you need serious battery power. What kind of battery do you have and how old is it?
