Brandon,
My advice would be to hold off on replacing other parts until you get the gear reduction starter. The battery is always the first thing to test with a starter problem because of the high current draw and the voltage drop over the long wires. I have seen several Bosch starters that intermitently fail unless the battery is fully charged. If you have not done it already, it is a good idea to clean the battery terminals, ground post and ground strap. If you have CIS injection, be aware that the cold start valve is spraying every time you hold the key in start and in my experience the thermotime switch safety is not quick enough to prevent flooding. Any auto parts store should have a universal starter push button. You then just need to put a ring terminal for the battery cable and a spade for the yellow solenoid wire. On a front engined car it is usually easy to jump the solenoid at the starter and test the wirings and switches from above. On the 911 you need to raise the car and crawl underneath to access the wiring which can be a problem if you are wearing your shooting outfit.
