Andy 4639, in that picture the solenoid is not switching the + battery cable, only switching the small wire that is being used to energize the G.M. solenoid, the + battery cable going to the starter is always hot. This diagram provides a full 12 volts to the G.M. solenoid without the voltage drop that will be seen through the bulk head connector to the ignition switch and back out to the solenoid. Clear as mud I hope?
