Thread: 350 SB chevy build...wiring help

1). The electric choke needs to be wired into a 12V SWITCHED IGNITION source. NOT wired directly to the battery. It needs to work while the car is running, not 24/7 as you have it wired now.
2). Where are all of the red wires going that head to the alternator? I see the sense wire (red 12ga. going to the white connector) jumpered to the output post. There is also a red wire running across the top of the engine, disappearing behind the alternator, where does that go to AND come from?
3). What is the red wire running cross-car behind the carb? Is that an inline fuse holder it wire nuts too?

Thanks for the replies guys I really appreciate it.

And I was never going to keep the wiring like this, it was set up like this just to “feel” things out. That’s why I reached out to get some tips on how to wire it properly.

I really appreciate it, I will get to work on it.
