PA Performance provided and extra terminal end with the
starter. Not necessary, but for good measure we added
some heat shrink tubing.
We crimped the terminal end with some professional grade
crimps. Certain tools are just worth the extra coin.
There's nothing like the satisfaction of watching some
heat shrink tubing instantly form to fit. It's just the
right thing to do.
We took more precautionary measures by using some Taylor
Fire Sleeving to protect the starter cable, after we taped
down the red wire.
Next, we routed the wires back down along the fire wall
and near the starter location.
We fitted the starter. This little thing was much easier
to put in than the old starter was to take out.
Here's the wiring arrangement out from underneath the
car.
We were sure to tie wrap the main wire in a manner that
prevented it from getting near the hot exhaust header.
Finally, we hooked the battery back up and tested the
starter. Success. Be sure to see the videos on the previous
page for some great audio of the start up.
