On my 3.0 in my 914 I am using a OEM Bosch 911 starter but from a turbo. It has more cranking power then the standard 911 starter. Perfect fit and excellent quality. On my 911SC with a 3.0 I have one of the aftermarket hi-torque starters and it also is a great starter. It spins faster then the one in the 914 and is lighter in weight. But there have been reports on various forums that sometimes they don't fit correctly and can damage ring gear teeth. Mine apparently fits because I've been using it for years now with no problems.
