Re: 402 big block solenoid wiring

Yeah, it's up on ramps and the Bone creeper is pretty comfortable. I agree with the usefulness of 1/4" sockets. (I also work on farm tractors where they come in handy too.) I got the starter bolts in today using a lithium ion right angle 1/4" socket driver, great little tool. I thought I was home free then but this has been a long haul with this truck's wiring.

The basic design is bad - the solenoid base should have been positioned in plain sight. Some of the fancy aluminum billet starters have the "solenoid" connections on the bottom - what a great idea! But they require shims to get the flywheel engagement right. No thanks.
