I suppose there are two ways to actually connect it: (1) to the load side of the solenoid, the contact feeding the starter motor, or (2) the feed from the ignition switch (the one that actually energizes the solenoid). Both would accomplish the same task of feeding 12v to the coil only when the starter is actually engaged. Thoughts? Again, I'm not sure how necessary the 12v to the coil even is since it seems to be starting fine. To summarize, stock coil and points, new gear reduction starter.

And btw the tach has never worked, but I've isolated it to a bad tach and will be converting it over to RVC specs at some point. The tach-related wiring is fine.
