Torque Master Starter issues

My OE starter crapped the bed. I bought a Torque Master mini starter from JEGS. I bought this mini starter because of everything that I have read on here about header clearance etc... Well a friend and I went to put the damn thing in and where the OE starter had two terminals the Torque Master has three terminals. I have tried a number of wiring combos with no luck. We took the starter to have it tested and the part store hooked it up to the machine and it worked fine. We came home and tried hooking it up the same way they wired it to the tester. Positive cable to one post and the ground was the started itself. Well the damn thing spins when the negative is plugged into the battery (keep in mind the bendix does not come out, like it did at the part store). Where do all of these wires go. I have the fusible links, positive battery cable and a thinner black wire that was hooked up to the skinny terminal on the OE selonoid?

Help please!!!
