Gents, ladies, things, and "them"......I need your help. I've been building a 1974, 6BT, 6spd crew cab F250 (Stock '74 frame with 2005+ axles, shackle reversal and front 2.5'' resis) for the last year. Its always been my dream to have a pirate build...irate build, but I've done a shit job at taking pics. So besides the point...I need help with starter wiring and hoping someone may be able to help me understand what I have going on.
Running dual batteries, a 1-wire alternator, a stock ford 4 post starter relay and the cummins conversions uses a 6.0 powerstroke starter. My question is starter wiring.
1) Do I connect the right side of my 4 post relay to one pole on the starter.....and ground the other pole of the starter to the frame?
2) Does the 6.0 starter have a relay built in..and do I need to jump it in any way?
3) Right now I have positive from the battery to the left of the ford 4 post (also where the 1 wire alternator connects), and another over to the second battery (+ to +). Then I ground each battery out independently of each other onto the frame. Right side of 4 post down to starter.....as pictured with the black wire.
I can provide more pics and answer more questions to help you guys help me. Right now I'm at a dead end...and I want this big bitch to fire up!!!
