Q: Ford Solenoid Switch in Lieu of Mopar Starter Relay?

WELL Bob, I guess not ALL comments were welcome after all.In your defense,you
have said turd on your Rembrandt,and took it personally.In my defense, OP archlab
wanted our thoughts on the subject, those are my thoughts.
If you have a heat soak problem from headers or hipo mannys,and heat wrap/
shielding is difficult or impractical/ineffective,there is certainly justification for
moving the high-current contacts away from the heat.Forgot about AMC version of
that unit,w/ford style starter & power(torque)flite trans,good call 67.
The bosch-cube style relay is definitely not an "upgrade" over your OE,however
it will work fine(quality variations not withstanding-go reputable),but more importantly they are plentiful and readily available.The circuit assignments are DIN
international standardized.Any relay usually will have those numbers on them some-
where. 30)hi-current switched V in
87)hi-current switched V out,normally open till relay is energized
87a)hi-current switched V out,normally closed
85&86)relay field coil control +&neg.
