BB7 Problems

I know this is supposed to be in the mechanics section, but I've posted it there and didn't get a single view. Neither did my questions on rear shock mounting hardwar or a Z1 FR 3 ETA cartridge. Not a single view, and it's pissing me off. I think there's something wrong in them parts

Anyways, I got the front BB7 8" version installed and it appears to be properly alligned. Pads are parralell and it doesn't scrape the rotor when it spins.

However, sometimes when I turn it scrapes the rotor. As far as I've read in the manual and around the intarweb that means a misalligned rotor. Can't say it is, the pads are perfectly paralell to the rotor.

Also, if I put my weight forward and pedal in a somewhat high gear (more torque on the cranks) the rotor scrapes. I haven't been able to find anything on this topic.

Thanks in advance for any help.
