So I simply disconnect the yellow wire at the solenoid and then run the 10 gauge wire from that point on the solenoid to an unfused 12V connector on the fuse block (that is only hot when the ignition is on)? What relationship does the purple wire have that is connected to the other side of the solenoid?

Thanks for the information. I very much appreciate the responses!

the purple wire is to activate the starter with the key!leave it, its important!
the wire you are looking for on the engine side of the firewall wiring block should be white and its preferable to replace this one if you can.
