Does anyone offer a quick disconnect wiring setup for a Mopar (Powermaster) starter on a hemi/RB block. I spend more time and hassle trying to connect the starter wiring and cable than I should. Plus the cable is almost touching the side of the block, I would hate to have it come loose and ground against the block or frame. Thanks, Dyno

hi, I used one from a 950 scoop loader, catipeller. its big and carries the load, has shrouded ends that plug together. makes started work lot easier!! just food for thought.

Doing the exact same thing on mine. I was just thinking how I could put a quick connect on it. Where can I get the connector you are talking about? Thanks and sorry to hijack this! Jeff

I too tired quickly with tring to get the wires off of the starter, but I went in a different direction than your plan. I have the batteries in the trunk and the main hot cable runs from the battery to the firewall connection (a insulated bulkhead "stud type" connector) and made a short cable to go to the starter from there. I also have a small (10 ga) wire to the starter solinod from the starter relay and used heat shrink tubing to make them as one. now when I remove the starter, I disconnect the wires from the firewall and take the starter and wires out together. The ground cable from the battery goes directly to the starter mounting stud with a 90* lug so it stays away from the headers.
Just a different way to do the same thing.

I use a grey quick disconnect style for tarp systems on our semis. We get them at a local napa, or fleet supplier. They are the same ones a bunch of the round round guys use. I have a year with no trouble on mine and in tarp system use they get full 12 volt loads for 20-30 seconds and hold up with no problems.
I'll try to get a pic or pn, but they are grey, about 1.5" wide and 1/2 thick 2 pole and slide together. That or try a snow plow supplier.
