Looking for a wiring diagram for 454 1 wire alternator and hei distributor. I know I've seen it on here before but can't find it.
If i get some free time tonight at work, ill play with it and post it for everyone to see.
Time to man up and yank it John! Ray
HEI needs one wire to the coil, one for the tach, they're labled.One wire alternator, heavy gauge wire to the battery cable connection on the starter solenoid. Don't get much easier than that.
Alternator doesn't go directly to the battery
I don't have the aux solenoid
You should...GT
Yes it is a great idea and cheap way to save your starter.Part of the reason for this is when your starting wire gets longer you end up not providing your starter solenoid with enough amps to properly hold the solenoid disk in against the contacts when cranking. This leads to burning the disk and under powering your starter eventually burning it out. By using the aux solenoid as close to the starter as possible you help to eliminate burning out your starter. They actually make one the goes directly onto the starter.Just my two cents worth.
