Got it!

The first thing I tried was to take some of my extra 00 welding cable and make a short ground cable. Next I ground off a spot on my frame and drilled and tapped a 7/16" bolt hole. Attached this ground from my lower starter bolt to the frame. Turned the key and the motor started and roared like a lion (my neighbors love me even more than before-no side pipes just headers). My timing was almost perfect. Next I took my mini high torque starter and put it back on and it works even better than the NAPA top of the line starter. The NAPA starter goes back tomorrow.

I think I will wait until tomorrow afternoon to breakin the engine with a longer run and heck I might as well hang those sidepipes.

Thanks everyone for your help, I couldn't have made this quick without your input.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone.....Life is good when things go right.
