I have seen it two ways. On my 71 suburban it runs from the battery to the frame through a wire holder bolted to the top of the frame. Then it goes to the front of the engine and runs under the oil pan rail in 2 clips to the starter.
I have also seen it go along the top of the frame to the started with a clamp at the front and one straight over from the starter on the frame.

HMM maybe thats why I have two holes in the frame rail heading toward the starter. How long would that cable be if you ran it down the frame rail? 5 1/2 - 6 feet maybe?
Thanks |

I'm not 100% sure on how the stock routing was but I ran mine down from the battery and attached it to the outside of the framerail and then through the oval hole (in the framerail) and then attached it to the inside of the framerail straight back and then over to the starter. I used exsisting holes in the framerail and installed rubber insulated aluminum cable clamps & stainless steel hardware. If memory serves me the cable was a total of 40" long, regards Doug
