Step 9a: Wiring

Carbureted setups with manual choke requires only 3 wire hookup:

1. Key activated starter solenoid (15A if stock, 40A if using high torque aftermarket starter).
2. One thick 4 AWG, and preferably at least 2 AWG, power wire for the alternator and starter.
3. Key activated ignition (10A for most aftermarket HEI ignitions).

No other wiring is needed to make the engine run.

There are so many standalone engine harnesses for the Gen0/I carbureted setup. Pick the one you like most, or make your own.
