Which Starter do I need??

After reading countless posts I'm more confused than ever. It seems Ford used more than 1 starter and it's clear as mud which one I need. I have a 68 F100 with a 390 engine taken from a 69 Mustang, paired with a C6 automatic transmission. The flex plate has 184 teeth. Can someone please tell me the correct starter that I need? Thanks!

If you got the $$...https://www.robbmcperformance.com/pr...t_starter.html

Or Napa, Oreillys, Summit, Jegs all have them in various configurations from stock style to mini-torque. I had a reman starter on mine that worked okay. I got tired of seeing the 'made in china' sticker and went for the mini-torque as I need it to clear the headers.
