Re: [Amc-list] Starter solenoid conversion ???

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

I forgot they changed! The only rewiring would be an extra battery cable to run between solenoid and starter, and maybe lengthening the wires that go on the GM solenoid to reach the Ford solenoid. 

The big thing is another starter would be required though, you can't convert the Delco to use the Ford solenoid -- not unless you wanted to use the Ford solenoid to feed the Delco solenoid... and there's no real point in that!

It never occurred to me to check if the Ford starter would fit in the hole!

It wouldn't be hard to re-wire.
