Help wiring ignition wire on 5.3 swap

[josueh95]

hey guys im almost about ready to fire up my 5.3 in my 76 c10 swb. The last part im having some trouble with is finding where i should connect the 12v switched cable that was provided in my harness. Now i hooked up the 12+ battery cable to my started and a positive cable from my battery to the starter also, i took out the entire wiring system from the engine bay when i did the swap so i dont have a cable runing from my starter to the ignition

there is a ign source labeled on the fuse box, do i just tap into that wire with the 12v switched cable?
also from where do i get the cable that runs to the starter? thanks for any help guys

You would have to test the connector in the fuse box to see if it is hot in both the "Start" & "Run" positions.

I'm not that familiar with the '73 up stuff but if you have an automatic I think the wire to the starter solenoid would come from the "Neutral Safety Switch".
