Thanks Guys, I've e-mailed them to make sure it will work with the 146 tooth wheel. Don't mine paying for good stuff....... If I want something cheep I've but a scruby !!

Yep,  I've had one of those for at least 12 years now, probably over 20K miles by now.  It is expensive, but the only way to go, if you ask me.  I couldn't keep rebuilt stock units going for more than a year.

Look in the links section of the site  Automotive Electrical Services has one.  I have used them with success

OK sometimes I wonder why Ford does things. Every other year a different engine with different parts that won't interchange !!! I know they are always trying to get better, but !!!

I have a Schiefer Aluminum flywheel # 4454A. From what I can tell it is a 146 wheel. I need a Mini Starter to use in my F.E.D. 
Can anyone tell me what will work ?

Thanks, Larry Short
