Default couple of things,,,,

dlotz Dan Try the Fe forum for your question about starters and QT bells. I run a tilton mini starter for the last 13 years. I did have to replace the gear drive because on of the bolts came loose and it angled the gear. If you are running a Stock 427 or 428 motor, the stock starters will work ok. If you are running a high compression motor or bigger stroker, you need a mini starter with gear reduction to turn over that motor. Large cables from the battery to the stater soleniod and the same from the soleniod down to the battery terminal on the starter. My starter is wired singlely. The soleniod on the starter goes directly to the battery terminal on the starter motor. Turn the key and both engage at the same time. Just simpler to do with limited room under the car in this location. This removes running more than 1 wire. Which ever way you go, get a starter heat shield to cover the motor and deflect heat off it. This will extent the life of the starter for years. Summit and Jegs sell the shields or raps for this.
