Good morning folks,

I've used this site in the past and the information I get has been great and very helpful. So, to refresh... I built (with mechanics help) a 350 small block chevy (69-78) from a Camaro. I had a Jeep TJ 2.5 engine was dead, so I swapped it out. My issue is the wiring... I have it all set up, but its a mess and I'm having an issue with the electric choke.

Just looking for a simple diagram on how to wire everything (with using relays) I don't really understand it.

- Distributor
- Carburetor (holley with electric choke)
- starter
- alternator
- Push start

Everything is all connected to the battery right now just while I figure this out. I'd like to have it cleaner and not have to hook them all to the battery. Most cables are #12 except for the battery to the starter and the grounds.

If anyone is willing to help me out, feel free to post a reply and I'll answer questions if you need more info/photos.

Also... when the ignition is shut OFF (no power) the Electric choke runs EXT HOT! To the point the wire actually melted... and this kills my battery EVERY night. I try running acc to see if there is power.. but the ignition is off. When the electric choke red cable to connected and connected to a power source it doesn't shut off (when that source if killed).

I'm new to this.. and I enjoy doing this. I completely rebuilt the whole vehicle from the frame to the engine... and its a hobby so take it easy.

Thanks for your time,
