Hi torque starter or stock?

I'm running 11.7:1 comp ratio. Will a stock starter handle this? Or should I pick up a hi torque starter like the mad Aps starter or similar?

I figured, but I'd rather buy a starter once, rather Than buy a sticker and have it not be powerful enough to start my brand new forged 370. Thanks for the input.

I just bought a new truck starter of amazon for $65 including shipping, came with the 2 long bolts and everything. Not a bad deal if you ask me
