Khan,
There are some wiring diagrams that are included with your wiring harness. Your harness already has a grounding kit installed so you won’t be grounding things to the frame. Here is what you will need (in general) for a basic, old school, FE build.

- OEM starter with external solenoid.
- Ford alternator (ext. regulator, the alternator must be less than 4 inches thick from mounting tab to back of alternator to clear the head).
- Ford 4 wire External Voltage Regulator
- Firewall mounted solenoid.
- HEI Distributor & ignition (MSD, Ford Duraspark, etc.) or traditional (old school) vacuum advance distributor, ballast resistor, and coil.


Take a look at the diagrams and then give me a call. I can help decipher the diagrams and then I will walk you through the basic wiring for the FE.
