Starter Wiring Question: Carbed 302 with Ron Francis Harness

[Jim Doak]

OK, I'm currently working on wiring my car, specifically the starter. However, neither the FFR/Ron Francis wiring instructions nor the Tuff Stuff wiring instructions/diagrams are very detailed.

I "think" I know what I'm supposed to do but I'd like some confirmation from the folks who've already been down this path.

I've attached some photos showing the starter, the Ron Francis wires in the harness to the starter, the Tuff Stuff wiring diagram, and the 12 GA Tuff Stuff wire provided with the starter.

I assume that the three Red wires in the Ron Francis harness all land on the upper terminal/lug on the starter solenoid? And that the Blue wire from the ignition switch replaces the "trigger" wire provided from Tuff Stuff that was designed to energize the starter using an old-style Ford starter solenoid/relay?

Let me know what you think.

Thanks.

Yes, that is correct, your battery lead also to the top terminal.

That's what I thought.

Thanks, Rich.
