Peter's has a turbocharged 4.6.   But the one he was referring to,
Ron's, 
uses the ZF.   His is a standard 5.4 truck motor with an aftermarket Weber-look

fuel injection system, not a Ford GT engine.

The starter mounts to the bellhousing, not the block, no?   I would presume 
(don't know) that a standard Ford mini-starter would do the trick?
