Ford-Type Starter Solenoid
Typical GM Starting Circuit
Starting Circuit w/Ford-Type Solenoid
This kit from Summit Racing (#SUM-G1750) includes all items necessary
to install. User might wish to get two new battery cables instead of
cutting their existing battery cable. One cable will be needed from
the battery (with correct post connection) to one side of the solenoid
and a second cable from the solenoid to the GM solenoid on the starter.
Note this kit and one from
M.A.D. Electrical comes with a metal connector for the GM solenoid
to connect the battery post to the inside "S" connection instead
of using a jumper wire.
Optional Starting Circuit w/30 Amp Relay
A Ford-style solenoid on a 1967 Chevelle.
A Ford-style solenoid can be used to not only hopefully eliminate or reduce the heat issue with the GM starter solenoid but can be valuable in assisting with things like a bump-start switch that is handy for getting top dead center on your balancer and even adjusting valves. The unit shown here is actually a Summit unit and the kit includes all the necessary wire ends. Naturally you will need ot change the single positive cable to two cables for the solenoid.
