I’ve never seen it before either, maybe it should be placed after the starter? I’ll have to trace the wiring and see what’s going where.

You shouldn't even need 250Amp after the starter Maybe 50, depending on what you fuse.

I wired all my Cobras loosely according to a VW Bus from the 60s. Mainly because the wiring diagram was free on the web. I do advocate taking load off the ignition switch, via a relay for the starter.

I also kept the fans separate by feeding them directly from battery (fused), via relays. I activate by hand (switch to ground), but one might forget. A temp switch, in parallel, is good backup.

My last cars had a mechanical fuel pump, pre-historic points distributor and no wipers.
KISS, keep it simple, sexy.

On this one I'm with Dominik, I doubt you need anything, anywhere greater than 50 amps and nothing in between your starter and battery.

After the starter or before the starter does not matter. In the simplest terms possible it does not belong in that circuit.
