Starter issues

The starter on my 454 just gave up, I'm looking for a new and improved one. I keep seeing all this "mini" stuff and to be honest I'm just not sure what to look at/for. The engine is not anything crazy but I do have plans to rebuild. I would really appreciate any suggestions on what starters to look at. Brand, torque, mini, standard, etc.

Thanks for any help

I have a '69 427/390. I bought a new, not rebuilt, unit fron Autozone over 27k miles ago, and it works very well for me. Hot or cold, works well. About $75 now. Lifetime warrantee.
I have found that oem type parts are sometimes more desirable than aftermarket parts.
