Default What different starters will fit the s2?

Iv had about 4 escorts and the starter keeps going i know it's down to the heat of the exhaust but what other starters will fit?. At the moment my starter is on the exhaust. Is there any starters that are shorter as im not sure if the 1 iv got is for a s2. I would buy new but a bit strapped for cash so i will be looking for a second hand one
thanks for looking
