With the HEI there is only one other wire required. It comes through the neutral safety switch on trucks with an automatic. It is propably purple in color and a 14 AWG in size.

connect it to the solenoid. Non HEI had a second wire (yellow) that went up to the coil for a boost of 12 volts while turning over the engine. The purple wire is the only wire that should be connecting to your solenoid with the exception of the positive cable that is straight from the battery.

That is correct.
The purple one goes to the S terminal on the solonoid |
