Thanks for the reply. I didn't know it's actually the starter cable which is the alternator cable aswell. I followed the larger cable from the battery to the starter but then followed a smaller cable from the battery going over the top of the fuel tank along the passenger side chassis rail to the bl...

Thankyou for the reply. So should I leave the existing starter cable in but also run that new cable ive fed in or just run that new cable and remove the old between the alternator and distribution point. Trying to help future proof as I'm going to be running an audio system requiring a bit of power.

I was going to mention that in a different post as I keep cutting my hand on a few metal strands do you have a link for that at all as I'll get it ordered straight away

From what I recall, the black piggyback wire go to Fuel soleniod on carb and choke. Reds go to manifold heater and carb body heater https://i.imgur.com/J2xE7nE.jpeg That is the fuel solenoid cut off.
