Really not enough information. Is it an automatic or manual. The only wire you need going to the starter solenoid with HEI is the purple wire. You don't need the yellow wire. Power the HEI by running a wire inside the cab and connect it to the "IGN UNFUSED" terminal on the fuse block.

Take both of the battery cables off and clean the battery posts and both ends of the cables good.

You can't sell the truck on here unless you are a "Premium" member and then it has to be posted in the "Trucks For Sale" classifieds. If you click on the word "Subscribe" in the menu bar above it will explain the different subscription options.
