Wire up a starter Q?

How do you wire up a starter?

There is 1 big connection and 1 little tab.

Is the little tab a ground and the big gets power from the ignition?


I have a VERY VERY custom set up. So there is NOTHING stock on my set up. It is a summit SBC starter and it is a painless wiring harness (18 circuit hot rob harness).

Hope you guys can help so that I do not have to do trial and error thanks.

The big one is constant +12v from the battery and the small one is +12v from a switch (ignition or start button) The starter grounds through the block.
